Smarttyjones,
 
Thanks for the info. I keep trying to debate if I really want the nav or if I'd rather have the sunroof. People have told me that I can always just buy a TomTom or Garmin. LOL And save the money.

You mean just buy one with a sunroof and not the nav and just use an IPhone for directions?

You can buy a pretty decent Garmin unit for $199 at BB... That will get you widescreen and text-to-speech instructions...
 
If you are on a budget (and who isn't?), dropping $1700-$2000 on factory NAV is just crazy..

Thank you for the suggestion. I know your right and will probably redo the numbers on a lease with the panoramic sunroof without nav.

New Offer by Gyrlwolf
Feb 24, 2009 (8:04 pm)

Dealer gave me new offer of SE Model w/4Motion, Nav, Gorilla Mat Kit, 18 in' wheels (versus the normal 17 in' with this trim model) & Sunroof for $439 a month with $3,000 down and $1,000 dealer cash. It's a 36 mth/12K lease with a financing total (TTL already included) of $31,362. Black w/Charcoal Interior. Wanted Candy White With Charcoal Leather (SEL 4Motion Model) but this offer seems better than last and includes Nav. Dealer off tomorrow, but holding vehicle aside for me for 2 days maximum, to give me time to mull over offer. Have 3 payments left on current Honda Pilot 42 mth lease of $355 that I'll have to pay off myself if I want to jump on this deal, but friends of mine think it's worth it for all that I'll get. Thoughts?

$500/month seems like a lot.. No leather for that, right?
 
I don't know the lease program for the Tiguan... I'm assuming it isn't very good.. That may be a decent lease price for the car you are getting, but it sure isn't a very good value, IMO...
 
But... it's not my money..

It's $439 a mth (but close enough to $500...smile) The current lease offer on a Tiguan is just the base trim model S (the offer I'm being given is for the middle one the SE trim) and the base model's lease offer per VW is $299 a month for 36 months , 12K miles a yr and $2399 down, (excluding tax, title, options and dealer charges) per their ad online. And yes, this is the non-leather version. Now what do you think?A good deal or no?
Patiently awaiting your reply.

$3000 minus $439 = $2561 divided by 36 months.. = $71/mo... + $439 =
 
$510/mo...
 
That's the best way to compare lease prices... What is the total cost divided by the term...
 
With the same calculation, the base model is leasing for about $355/mo. + tax..
 
My feelings are still the same.... The lease program isn't very good, which makes the Tiguan an expensive vehicle to lease, relative to it's purchase cost... But, that isn't that unusual... there aren't many SUVs that are good lease buys, right now..
 
Hopefully, someone will post a comparable lease price over in lease questions... We don't have a lot of activity to compare prices on the Tiguan..
 
I wouldn't be in a hurry, either way.... Especially since you have 3 months left on your lease... If you find a comparable vehicle without NAV, you'll save about $25/mo, even at these prices..
 
regards,
kyfdx

Thxs for the feedback. I think I'll take your advice and wait a little bit. Feeling too rushed right now and I don't like to rush when it comes to money. Plus, since the Tiguan is a new model, I think I'd rather lease versus purchase, just in case it doesn't end up being all I expected, if you know what I'm saying. I too hope we'll see more comparable lease prices soon over in lease questions.
 
Cheers,
 
Gyrlwolf
