Follow Up - Final Deal by spagball

Just wanted to put the up the final numbers to the deal I closed last night on my GTI. I'm pretty happy with what I got and after my first counter on their first offer the dealership was very upfront, fair and posted what I feel was their best offer.
 
Deal was on '09 GTI, 4DR, DSG (A/T), Autobahn pkg, PWR sunroof, 18" Hufs, & iPod.
Price - $26,665.00
Rate - .00156 (thanks Car_man)
39 mons
$2321 - tax, tags, & dest. (which they cut $100 off on dest.) [6% tax in my area]
first payment by them
$339.82/mon
 
I think it worked out well and it's a beautiful Tornado red.

Ahhh I see that you've finalized the deal. This car will be a blast for $340 per month. You got it in the hot red color as well. Now I hate you because I want this car . Thanks for taking the time to report back and let us all know how everything turned out. If you'd like, you can hop on over to the Dealer Ratings & Reviews section of Edmunds.com to share your thoughts on your recent dealer experience as well.
 
Happy New Year and enjoy your new ride !

Here's a more recent quoteI got
Lease term: 36 months/12k miles
MSRP: $25.139
Offer: $22.600
Rate: .00105
Resid: .53
Down: $0
$340/month
 
It seems there's more room to push the offer down if I wait a bit more. Does anyone know whether VW credit will change its lease program for February?

Hi Tom. Here's the information that you're looking for. Volkswagen Credit's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2009 GTI 2 Door with 12,000 miles per year are .00105 and 53%, respectively. The money factor for an otherwise identical lease of a 4 Door GTI is exactly the same, but its residual value is 1% lower.

Hi GTIGR. It's excellent that you know what this car's selling price is. The selling price is the single most important number to find out when leasing. The problem is, we don't have anything to compare it with. You need to find out what this car's MSRP or dealer invoice price are so that we can see how much of a dealer discount you are being given on this car. You can find out the MSRP by asking the dealer or look up both of these numbers over in the New Vehicle Pricing section of Edmunds.com.
 
The other main profit center for dealers besides cars' selling prices is their money factors. Dealers are often allowed to mark up vehicle's factors to add additional, hidden back-end profit to deals. The money factor that you were quoted for the GTI that you want is right in line with VW Credit's buy rate for this model. So it looks good.
 
I personally always pass on excess wear and tear warranties on leases. In all of my years of leasing, I have never been charged an excess wear and tear penalty of $500.
