Replying to: papalo (Feb 23, 2007 1:39 pm) If you want to know where the car is located, go to http://www.vw.com/d_v_locate/edl/html/find_a_dealer.html Look for dealers in NM, go to their "New Cars" section, and search inventory for Eos units. If you are in a hurry for your Eos, sign an purchase agreement for that color, interior, options, etc. with a delivery date of a few days away, subject to a sucessful test drive, mileage under x miles, etc. If they can't produce the car as described in the contract in the specified timeframe, they'll have to give you your deposit back ($500 should be adequate). Use a credit card just in case they fail to produce and start playing games, so you can dispute the charge and get the $ back through the credit card company. If you're not in a hurry, go ahead an have them order one for you. Might be 4 months or so, but well worth the wait for exactly the model you want at a good price. The only down side is that if invoice price increases during that time, you'll have to pay a bit more if the contract is for $x over invoice. I got caught for $446 dollars because of that, but that's just the cost of ordering. Paul |

Well I broke down and bought my wife one of these tonight. Here was my deal: Herman Cook VW - Encinitas, CA Silver w/ Black Leather 2.0T Luxury Pkg Park Assist $35,665 MSRP Sold at $33,518 pre tax/fees which was $400 over invoice From what I've read and heard, not too bad of a deal considering this is a pretty hot car right now. They first tried to offer a split between MSRP and invoice, $34,400 and I said I'd sleep on it and get back to them. Then they came back at me with $33,900...no go I said. The 3rd time was a charm saying I wasn't going to buy unless I was at $33,500 and they took the offer. HOLD YOUR GROUND MY EOS BUYING FRIENDS!!! Offer no more than $500 over invoice. A few side notes, I wish they'd offer the brushed aluminum instead of the "wood" on the luxury package. There are so many other chrome/aluminum accents inside the car I just think the sport package has a better feel/fit. FYI - we didn't get the sport package because the car rode a little more on the rough side with the stiffer shocks and the seats were a little too firm. I'm sure the 18's added to the bumpier ride, although they do look clean on the Eos! Function over fashion with the 17's. The normal upgraded stereo with the luxury package is sufficient so we couldn't see spending another grand on the Dynaudio. And we thought our handy $15 Thomas Guide would get us to where we needed to go, rather than paying $1800 for nav. But I was almost sold on it due to it looking much cleaner than the normal stereo. Bottom line is this is a sweet car. Can't wait for the weekend to go topless down the coast. |

I took delivery on my Eis.Blue/Moonrock 2.0T Sport Package on Friday. I got $1,000 off MSRP by going to my third dealer. The first dealer I tried to work with insisted on $2000 more than MSRP because there aren't that many around. The second wanted MSRP. On top of getting a much better price they delivered the car to me, overnighted the papers. I saved a lot by shopping around and got out of sitting in the sales office for hours.

I love the Eos!!! I had had a Cabrio, and was very excited when I heard VW was coming out with a new convertible. The price surprised me (higher than anticipated), but the High Octane gas surprised me even more.  Does anyone use lower (mid-range or low-range) gas in their Eos? Would like to know how the car runs on other than High Octane. The tech guys at the dealership said that it wouldn't negate the warranty, and all I would see would be less gas mileage.
