#128 of 175 Any Texas buyers with price advice? by catatbu May 25, 2007 (11:10 pm)
I'm looking to buy a 3.2L Eos as soon as possible (I know, I know - bad time of year to be in the market for a convertible). I'm in San Antonio TX looking for a candy white with tan interior and some bells & whistles(nav, Bluetooth are musts).   Does anyone how much I should expect to pay in South Texas for this?   Should I wait until autumn in hopes that prices will go down, or is that a pipe dream?   I know you're supposed to get them down to something like "$500 over invoice" or something like that, but how do you find out what invoice is?

Replying to: catatbu (May 25, 2007 11:10 pm) Consumer Reports says that $200 to $400 over Invoice is reasonable. I walked in with a printout from the Edmunds site - it has MSRP and wholesale prices on it and asked the salesman how much over invoice he felt was reasonable. Honestly, we just negotiated in terms of "Invoice Plus ___" and "KBB Minus ___".
#130 of 175 How much to pay for EOS by neelpatel16 Jul 20, 2007 (7:42 am)
Hey, I live in Virginia and I was wondering what is the best price to pay for EOS. When someone says 400-300 over the invoice, is that Out-the-Door price??? I would really appreciate any reply. Thank You.... Replies to this message: vwguild1 (Jul 20, 2007 2:14 pm)

Replying to: neelpatel16 (Jul 20, 2007 7:42 am) No...It is the price of the car...Tax, Title & Lic. are fees that the State keeps...Just like groceries or a TV

Has anyone bought the sealant lubricant that VW recommends? I understand it can be about $75 a bottle.   Have only had my EOS about a week (and absolutely LOVE it)! It's great to know about the possibility of leaks before I wash it for the first time. Our monsoon season is over (Southern NM), so hopefully won't have to deal with a lot of rain until next August.

#133 of 175 Vehicles Manufacture Date by aliceb Aug 17, 2007 (8:43 am)
I understand you can tell when your car was manufactured based on the VIN number.   Does anyone know how?

Replying to: aliceb (Aug 17, 2007 8:40 am) I got the lubricant from my dealership. Bought it at the same time I was in for 5k oil change.   I had to order it through Parts and, at that, I had to show them the page from the owners manual and describe it because they had no clue what I was talking about.   They special ordered it - apparently it's not something they found necessary to keep on hand - and passed it on to me for $51.
#135 of 175 Pricing in FL by deepc1 Oct 26, 2007 (5:17 am)
I bought a 2007 2.0T 6spd for my wife in Febuary. We got a few options and paid exactly MSRP but I traded in 2 cars and did well on the trades.   As for being slow get the 6 speed! The DSG is nice but the manual is more fun to drive. I had a little acceleration test against a Pontiac Solstace and I don't think he was very happy whren it was over.   However there have been a few problems which I'll post in the Leaking Forum (more than leaks)
#136 of 175 Pricing in TX by jbryanjohnson Nov 04, 2007 (3:57 pm)
I bought a 2007 2.0T 6spd for my wife in November (yesterday). Sticker was $31,399, paid $28,865. I think that most if not all the discount was year end incentive through VW. I spent very little time negotiating and was please with the discount and the amount on my trade. Finance was 6.6%   Low tire warning was on during test drive. Salesman said it was because the car had not been drove and that he checked the pressure to be good. Warning stayed on all the was home. All tires were at 29. I bumped up to recommended pressure of 34 and all is good.   There is a problem with the trunk latch. When I hit the button it pops open, but then pulls right back down. The only way to open it is to stand there with dandle in one hand and remote in the other, and pull while pushing release button.   This was my first experience with the Autobahn Imports here in Ft Worth TX. The salesman was very pleasant, but the wait for finance was long. All in all above average, but still a typical PITA new car buying experience. Replies to this message: aliceb (Nov 04, 2007 5:11 pm)

Replying to: jbryanjohnson (Nov 04, 2007 3:57 pm) I can't answer your question re the trunk latch, but I also had a problem with my tire pressure.   I couldn't get any of the free-air machines in town to increase my tire pressure when the error message went off. Apparently they don't have enough power. I took it to VW the following morning, and they said it only takes about 2 lbs. low to set off the error message. Also, I found out that the sensor is also attached to the spare -- so if you can't find a problem with the pressure of your tires, check the spare.
