#114 of 123 Re: want to buy an '09 rabbit this week - need advice! [shipo] by flemishsour Dec 30, 2008 (10:53 pm)
Replying to: shipo (Dec 29, 2008 4:48 pm) Went into the dealership and got 15.5k including winter package + mats which is what I was looking for - ~$17k otd. Got hung up on the financing, but hopefully I'll be able to finalize things tomorrow and get my new car. I've got a sweat lodge I'm doing with some friends for the new year and I really want to get there in my new VW. Thanks for an awesome forum / thread!

Replying to: Sylvia (Jul 20, 2006 5:58 pm) I had been looking for a New Rabbit for one of my kids and have found that there are some great deals on the used market rather than buying new. We are out in the Northwest and it seems that 07's are going around $12ish which is much easiesr to stomach considering this is a vehicle for my teen driver. The good thing is that they are still under the factory warranty period. This is the place that we ended up deciding on just for reference: www.DAngeloAutoSales.com.

Replying to: micro_chip_man (Mar 24, 2009 4:17 pm) I second your comments. I just bought a 2007 Rabbit 6AT 2-door, dark blue, 34k miles with VW warranty (factory + VW Certified) until April 16, 2013 or 74k miles. I paid $11,050 + T&L (MN, 6.5% tax), or $12,090.50 OTD. (My deal included a $200 coupon from the dealership chain.) The dealer's "special Internet price" on the car was $11,995 + T&L.   Like you, the Rabbit is for one of my kids--my daughter, who is our youngest. So the fact that the Rabbit has excellent safety features plus is a practical car was important. But before she gets it in about 4 years for school, I get to enjoy it.   The car has one small light scratch on the driver's door (which I will take care of with a paint crayon, or use one of the five "touch up" coupons I got from the dealership in their owner benefits package), otherwise I can not tell it from new. Even the mats and tires are new. CarFax was clean. Purchased from Luther Westside Volkswagen in Golden Valley, MN. Had a very good buying experience. Negotiations were straightforward, and although the finance guy was persistent in trying to sell me an extended warranty, he was professional about it. I am not allowed to mention the sales rep's name, but everyone I worked with was professional and easy to do business with. This is my 2nd car from that dealership in the past 3-1/2 months. I bought a 2005 Jetta (also VW Certified) from them on Dec. 31, from a different sales rep (he was out this week). That car was totaled last Monday by a guy running a red light, hence my need to replace it. I am very happy (after two whole hours of ownership!) with the car and my buying experience. I think VW Certified cars are a great option to get a good car with a manufacturer-backed warranty at a good price.
#117 of 123 Used price 2008 rabbit by shay2 May 07, 2009 (5:19 pm)
Thinking of a 2008 Rabbit 26,000 miles. 4cyl automatic they are asking $16K in the SF bay area what would be a good price? thanks Replies to this message: shipo (May 07, 2009 6:52 pm)

Replying to: shay2 (May 07, 2009 5:19 pm) I don't believe that any 2008 Rabbits were sold in the U.S. with 4-Cylinder engines (they were all inline 5-Cylinder 2.5 liter mills). As for the price, I'm thinking that $16,000 sounds more than a bit high given that new 2009 models around here can be had for less money.   Best regards, Shipo
#119 of 123 Re: How much room I have to negotiate for such a 4 door? [xiaod] by penrosky1 Aug 14, 2009 (10:51 pm)
Replying to: xiaod (Dec 20, 2008 10:00 am) I am in IL, looking for a 4dr automatic rabbit. Because OTD prices post here were of Dec 2008. I don't know how is the market temperature now. Is it worse or better? Should I target at 20,000 OTD or more? What's your experiences? Thanks!
#120 of 123 Final Deal at end of end. by calvinyim Nov 11, 2009 (11:04 am)
I have a plan to buy a New 2009 VW Rabbit 2.5L S / Automatic model. I got an offer at OTD $13988 from MSRP $18164. Since VW will stop Rabbit next year and change Golf lineup, I am expecting a very good deal at the end of this year and at the end of production.   Do you think OTD $14K is a good deal?   Thanks.

Replying to: calvinyim (Nov 11, 2009 11:04 am) Grab it and run before they come to their senses. There's lots of used Rabbits in my region for more than that, before T&L. Replies to this message: calvinyim (Nov 17, 2009 4:21 pm)

Replying to: backy (Nov 11, 2009 12:24 pm) As expected, the actual price in the dealer shop is much higher than $13988. They asked $16000. I'll wait 2010 Golf.
#123 of 123 Just bought.... by hipptyhop Nov 17, 2009 (10:47 pm)
a used 2009 VW Rabbit 2 dr Automatic with 10,240 miles for $13,000. It has the ipod upgrade as well (we really like this). Does this seem like a fair price? I hope we got a good deal, we really like the car, it does seem bigger and more solid than most of the compact cars that we looked at.
