I went to lease, I ended up buying. I pay $403 per month for 60 vs. $329/mo for 36 or $347 for 48 to lease. However, I'm on my 2nd CC. First one leaked through an unsealed seam and filled with mold. VW replaced it. Replacement has had Bluetooth failure, now Autohold is dead. Car has all of 1900 miles on it. Love the car, but I'm beginning to question it's quality. |

Looking at the 2009 CC Luxury, but dealer has a 2009 V6 4Motion in a color we like, interior we want, loaded (except bluetooth looks like which we really do want and says tech pkg no camera ?? I thought that was part of the tech pkg??) ....sticker says $41,988 sale price $32,000.....new car.....  Quote on a Luxury 2.0 turbo CC with Tech Pkg/Bluetooth/ipod conn - $32,386..yea or nay? Same without Tech Pkg is $30,697....yea or nay on that one? Really do want the backup camera and bluetooth....... Is there currently a $1000 incentive? Dealer also says 3 years free maintenance.... We are looking to purchase..... Please help - advice needed asap!! Thanks!

The 4 Mo. w/V-6 is a beautiful car to look at and sit in, but really is going to prove to be less satisfying over the long haul. If the Lux 2.0 has what you want, I'd do it. I'd do the tech package. Piece of advice: Don't listen to the dealer's training/delivery talk if they offer one. Read the Owner's Manual on the tech gear.

Replying to: davelja1 (Aug 21, 2009 6:48 pm) I'm thinking maybe I need to try to go another $1000 off the price on the Luxury with tech pkg.....I checked out a website called TrueCar.com someone suggested and love that site...... Besides better mileage, what makes the turbo superior? Some slight differences in what's included...... Thanks for the help!!

I have a 2.0T Lux, Tech/BT/iPod. The camera is really cool, it washes out in certain lighting conditions but really helps with backing in to a parallel parking spot. If you really need more power than the 2.0 (I've decided I don't), APR will flash your computer and give you +/- 230hp/280tq for $600, and the mileage stays much better than the VR6. You can even reset it temporarily to stock if you go to the dealer. I originally went in to buy a black manual trans sport, but was able to get the lux with all the goodies for about $15 a month more. Well worth the extra cost, people can't believe how low my lease is. Good luck! |

Replying to: thors (Aug 21, 2009 6:57 pm) The 2.0T is a super-torquey engine. It's VW's bread-and-butter engine, and goes into all GTI and GLI models and is the mainstay of the Audi A4. The V-6 is an older engine. Try them both side by side, but NOT in your average test drive. Take both out on the highway, back-to-back test drives. Punch it! Hard! The 2.0T will blow you away with it's gutsiness. It also makes the CC more fun to drive. The first time my 18-year-old son was in the car with me, I had to punch it. The car shot forward, pinning us to the seat, and the engine roared as it went through it's shifts. He looked at me and said, "What the hell is THAT? Is that YOUR engine? That is so COOL sounding!" Consider the fact that I lived with an automotive mistake for 7 months before the CC. I had a Buick Lucerne with a 190 hp dog of a 3.8. Now, you're toodling in a car with a 1,000 pounds less weight, superior road-handling, and 200 hp. Most auto writers will back the 2.0T as well. Apart from the looks and that the car is German, you're buying a car that offers a little fun on demand. If that's not what any of us wanted, we'd all drive Toyotas or Hondas. Buy what you like, and enjoy it. But in my opinion, the 2.0T is tops.

Replying to: davelja1 (Aug 22, 2009 4:40 am) I think the 2.0T is enough, but wanted opinions.....It's a deal that's $7900 off original price, so thought to maybe consider for $34,000... surfwagon56 - what is your lease out of curiosity? Thinking of purchasing, but haven't rules out leasing......what was the final sales figure...sounds like exactly the same I'm looking for....quote I have is $32,386 and w/o tech $30,697..... Thanks for the help!
