Replying to: jeffyscott (Apr 02, 2007 7:20 am) yeah i got that, vw sent me some coupons, i just thought i saw you say that the place you go to charges you 50 regardless of coupons. Replies to this message: jeffyscott (Apr 02, 2007 10:47 am)

Replying to: eldaino (Apr 02, 2007 8:15 am) Yes, that's right...but wanted to note that the coupon was on the website. In my initial post, I had meant to refer to vw.com rather than VW.
#10 of 13 06 models by shirotori Apr 15, 2007 (9:12 am)
I was just at a vw dealership yesterday, after it was closed to take a look at the available Rabbits. This dealership (in Western Wisconsin) has about 5 or 6 Rabbits and I was struck by the fact that most of them seemed to be 2006 models. If we are coming close to the 2008 model year, why would they still have a fair amount of '06s? Would those '06 models be more likely to be marked down or will they probably sell close to their MSRP? What do you think? Replies to this message: jbaustian (Apr 15, 2007 10:36 am) backy (Apr 15, 2007 10:55 am) eldaino (Apr 15, 2007 7:12 pm)

Replying to: shirotori (Apr 15, 2007 9:12 am) That's very, very odd. VW Rabbits are in fairly short supply just about everywhere, very few dealers have an abundance of them, and then you find one that has so many 2006 models?   I believe the 2006 models were first made available in May or June 2006, then the switchover to 2007 came in September or so. During last summer the dealerships around here had maybe one Rabbit on the showroom floor and zero out on the lot. Whenever any new ones arrived, phone calls were sent out before the Rabbits were even unloaded off the truck, and most were sold within 12-24 hours.   I wish you would revisit that Wisconsin dealership, find out what's up with those 2006 models, and report back here. It's an interesting puzzle.   And BTW, I doubt they will be discounted, not much anyway. But still a good deal. Replies to this message: backy (Apr 15, 2007 10:55 am) eldaino (Apr 15, 2007 7:12 pm)

Replying to: jbaustian (Apr 15, 2007 10:36 am) It's possible that dealership acquired the 2006s from other dealers, to meet local demand because they ran out of 2007s. You can check that by looking at the window sticker to see the dealers to which the cars were originally shipped. I've seen that kind of thing happen before.

Replying to: backy (Apr 15, 2007 10:55 am) this struck me as a possiblity too, but why would other dealers have 06's in stock to send out ?
