The sales tax seems high... I know NJ collects upfront, but I thought it was on the total payments... Seems like the tax should be around $1400 on a lease..
 
But, no.. $3000 upfront and $464/mo. seems like a lot for a Tiguan... they just don't lease out very well..

Yeah, I'm gonna check with another local dealer. That sales tax just seems like a lot to me too.

New Offer by Gyrlwolf
Feb 24, 2009 (8:14 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?

I do not think it's worth eating $1000 for this deal. There will be plenty of Tiguans available in 3 months. Further, you shouldn't be putting any money down on a lease other than paying fees and taxes (likely covered by the $1000 dealer cash). If you were to get in an total accident the day after you signed, you'd be out the $3000 + the $1000 you paid off on the other car. Basically, your $3000 pays their gap insurance many times over...

Ikramerica,
 
Thanks for your feedback. I was thinking something similar, but was wondering was I being too cheap. I just keep thinking for $3,000 down I should be able to get the model I want plus the payments I want ($400 mth max) but wanted outside feedback. Plus a part of me was wondering if VW would be coming out with a TDI model in a few months. Dealer also was trying to mention to me paying over $600 for some type of PDI/Vehicle Detailing/Gas Fees? I was like "what?" He was like "the vehicle just arrived and must be detailed and gased and we must pay someone to detail it. It still has the white protective tape on it." I told him "that's not my problem that's his dealer's problem as the vehicle has to be cleaned before it can be sold anyway." These "fees" weren't mentioned in the SEL model deal (see first post of mine). I'd never heard of such things and felt they were just trying to get more money out of me.

Dealer made me a killer offer:
SEL 4Motion with sunroof & nav for 440 month plus tax with zero down....money factor is .13 and residual is 50%, they are eating the cap cost as long as I sign before March 1.
Can it be real!!!!!!?

That's because they were just trying to get pure profit from you. They aren't going to detail the car anyway, just wash it. Tell them you can buy your own gas if they don't want to fill it up, but it is their responsibility to deliver the car in a clean, drivable state.
 
The only fees you should pay are state fees, a small document prep fee (which I think is dumb but pretty standard), and any fees directly from VW credit, like a lease/loan origination fee, although if you are a pervious customer, they can waive that, too.

March lease rates by verystingy

Hello Carman,
    I was wondering if you could provide the money factor and residuals for a 2009 Tiguan SE or SEL 4 motion with various time frames. I would consider 36, 39 & possiblly 48 months with either 12K or 15K mileage. Also, are there any incentives (i.e., loyalty)? Thanks for your help. I love these forums.

s, se, sel? by nickr1

I went in to a dealership looking for the $299 lease on the Volkswagen site. He quoted me $30,000 for an S with Auto, 4 motion and roof window (the $299 comes without the roof window, which I think the car really needs to shine). Then "discounted" it 2K to $28,000, even though this trim is an SE listed on the VW site for 27K. As a lease he offered:
 
Price: $28,000 (from 30,000)
Down: ny taxes plus first month $2,000 (1,600 + 400)
Miles: 12,000 year
Monthly: $410 (10,000 miles a year was $390)
 
Here is my thoughts on the lease offered:
Price is way too high for what it is, the monthly is way too high for what it is.
 
Here is my thoughts on the spec and trim quality:
The cloth seats are a downer, they don't offer leatherette, and the leather option, although nice is way overpriced. The lowest lease price excludes the sun roof which ruins the quality of the car if you don't have it. The fit and finish is just at Honda CRV or Toyota RAV4 level, but the ride in the VW is better. If I had specked the sel with leather, roof, auto and nav the lease price would have given me a heart attack, it would have been near $500/month or higher.
 
Here is my thoughts on the dealer:
Euro snob attitude,"car is in demand, car is better than competition, lease price is good, we have German engineering etc". Right now, I'm having trouble washing his cheap cologne off my hands.
 
Let me ask you, is Volkswagen a premium Euro brand that has some kind of pricey cache in America? It's an in demand, hard to get your spec, never discounted, no real incentives, a come on price on the website but in reality a very expensive car? But in reality is, and should be priced as, a Euro version of Honda? I'm just asking.
