We picked up a Silver SEL Premium with NAV and RSE this weekend. The only option left out was the towing prep package.. We could have bought it for 32,285 + tax + Registration but because we opted for the special financing, we paid 36,285 + tax + registration and 0% apr for 72 months.. i calculated my offer to the dealer as follows... $40,800(Invoice) - $1500(Discount for RSE) - $2000(VWs Cash Back w/ 0%) = $37,300 ... I offerred $1015 under that final amount of $37,300 making my offer $36,285 ... I know there is $500 out there in addition for Owner Loyalty but we don't qualify for that, and there is additional $500 for the NY auto show.. all you have to do is got the VW booth at the auto show, and they will give you a voucher for $500 towards the purchase of a new VW... even without the extra 500 for loyalty and 500 for the autshow, the dealer jumped on my offer of $36,285 + the 0% apr for 72 months... I hope that helps others in the market for a Routan.... I am in NJ and we got the car from Trend.

Replying to: jatmobile (Apr 20, 2009 6:32 am) I'm looking to buy one this weekend. $40,800 seems a bit high for invoice to me. I'm seeing it a little over 37k on carsdirect and edmunds. Did I miss something?

Replying to: zerodown (Apr 21, 2009 4:59 pm) now... if you go for the financing instead, the RSE cash back is still 1500, plus you can get an additional 2000 cash back and still get the 0% apr and that too for 72 months, if you go to a wholesale dealer... the loyalty and the auto show cash still appplies... remember one thing.. the 1500 cash back for the RSE and 500 for loyalty and auto show is VW cash back to you... you are absolutely entitled to it.. the 2000 or the 6000(mentioned above) is VW cash back to the dealer and the dealer does not have to pass it on to you... but in todays market, they are just happy to make a sale and make the basic sales commission on the car which i believe is about $200 plus the hold back... Good Luck.... where are you located b.t.w.? check this link out http://www.fitzmall.com/fitzway/carfind/RESULTSB.ASP?V_XREFID=FCGR549613:2008-10- -30T23:04:02.390

Replying to: jatmobile (Apr 22, 2009 4:22 am) My research indicates the cashback may vary by trim: S (4,000), SE (5,000), and SEL (6,000). That's what it looks like, but can anyone confirm this? I am looking to buy either an SE or SE/RSE in Seattle area. Does anyone live in Pacific Northwest? Thanks!

Replying to: iloveyou (Apr 24, 2009 12:30 am) The dealer will make up for it through "PART" of his hold back... on top of the cashback figures you mention above, add an extra 1500 for RSE and another 500 if you currently have a VW anywhere in your household...

Replying to: jatmobile (Apr 27, 2009 7:47 am) You mention that one can get 0% for 72 months (up from 60mo) if you go to a "wholesale dealer". How does one identify a wholesale dealer compared to a regular one. I'm in Los Angeles. If you are ~$1K under invoice you mentioned that the dealer makes up for it through part of the "hold back". What is a "hold back"? Thanks! Rio

i just bought an SEL + Trim Package #3 (includes Sun/Moon Roof, etc.) it was listed for $36,675 MSRP $34,126 INVOICE ... i got it for over way under "invoice." i can tell you if you want to know - basically they took off the hold back as well as the so called "extra" hold back just to get the van out the door. To get this deal, i had to pick one out of their lot - i could have done without the sunroof, but it was so low we just went ahead with it. |

Continued from above post... I got an email quote from one dealer for less than $25,000 (SEL with no option). This was a great price, i thought. But, they did not have the color / trim i wanted and it was a bit far from home. So, i called another dealer who was closer and had a white one. This dealer offered to beat it by a couple hundred bucks. The next day we went down to look at the white SEL they had. But, when we actually saw / drove it, we just could not warm up it - we hated the color. But we were very comfortable there (really nice folks) and did not really want to venture out to other dealer who might wear us out. Also the dealer offered additional discount if we picked anything from their lot. So, after few cups of coffee, we decided to go for a silver one with TP3, which was another two grand. At first i did not care for it because i am over 6' But, sitting in it wasn't that bad. And my wife really liked it. iloveyoukrisiamthat |
