    Just to update you guys, I did indeed get my 2.0t. For your reference:

    2007 2.0T no packages
    $22500 OTD
    Los Angeles area

    I've had it for about 3 weeks and am enjoying it so far. No mech problems to speak of.

    Good deal:)

    Could you introduce the dealership? btw: is it a "base" or "2.0T"? Thanks a lot:)

    I am in SF bay area. All I got so far is 24xxx OTD for "base" model without any options. So sad~~~~~
  • Options
    cynicalcynical Member Posts: 5
    Its a 2007 2.0T manual transmission.

    You can certainly do better than $24K. Are you trying to get a manual or automatic? Have you tried the internet department at the dealers near you?

    Hi yybug:
    The price was offered by Sunnyvale VW's internet department. Cash price or $2000 more if you used the special VW financing.

    Good luck

    Hi phx1021,
    Could you tell me where you bought your 2.0T? I tried my best to negotiate a deal last night and they would not go below $29K on a luxury package.
    Thx.

    It was VW North Scottsdale. They are part of a publicly owned company (United Auto) and were very easy to work with. Also this was a cash price and would not be eligible for their cut rate financing.

    Also, when browsing online inventories through VW.COM I noticed there are not alot of 2.0T Lux cars around. Limited availability of a trim could make it more difficult to get a good price, but it didn't in our case.

    >Also it has a german engine, this is the only reason I would buy this car, after the last experience of an engine made in mexico, I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING MADE OR ASSEMBLED IN THAT PLACE, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I guess I'll have to sell my Mexican-built 1997 Jetta (engine - Mexico, transmission - Mexico) that just turned 214,000 miles... Or my Mexican-built 2003 Wolfsburg Jetta (engine - Germany, transmission - Japan) with 95,000 miles...

    B.T.W. - If you just had a new house built within the past 5 years or so, chances are it was built with Mexican labor. If you've had any landscaping or hardscaping done within the past 5 years - Mexican labor. Quick - trade in the house before it falls apart!!!!

    Nothing like showing one's true colors, eh?

    Just bot a2007 Passat (base model). I received 2 keys but no key tag. The key tag is described on page 45 of the equipment manuel. I called the dealer and he said that they stopped giving out key tags to all Passats. Does anyone know if this is true? Or do I need to press this further to get a key tag?

    Thanks.......

    The "key tag" contained the last 8 of the VIN. Kind of superfluous...

    Unlike yourself, every vehicle that I've owned has lasted 200,000 miles or more (and I do most of my own maintenance) - all the way back to my days in the Air Force working as a crew chief (aircraft mechanic) on C-141s, C-130s and C5s.

    Bty, nothing better to do today? other than post your comments where they dont belong.

    This is a VW forum. Sounds like your grievences should be heard in the dodge forum. Sounds like you made a post where it doesn't belong...

    too lazy to do a bit of hard work yourself

    I was told $2000 incentive from two dealers. But from previous post, I found $3500 incentive + $1500 loyalty. Is this still valid now?

    07 Passat Wagon, package 1, msrp 29,439

    invoice of 27613 + tax and dealer fee of $302.50.
    OTD of $29,505.28 w/ VW 4.9% financing. this does not include
    my trade. I have been dealing with the internet guy for a bit. He says
    he absolutely can't sell the car below invoice. I tried for some holdback
    and cash to dealer incentive. Is there anything I am missing?

    can someone give me an opinion on this deal?
  • Options
    beepx2beepx2 Member Posts: 2
    I'm no expert but it sounds high. Depends on where you are, and how badly the dealer wants to sell the cars. My guy started with invoice, gave up most of the holdback, and a 2000 incentive. Had I financed, the incentive would have been only 750. My car had been sitting on the lot for months, and I'm sure they were glad to see it go. There were a lot of wagons in stock. Your OTD price is hard to compare because the tax and doc fees can vary so much by state. In my experience, you just have to find the dealer who most wants to sell a car. Good luck.
  • Options
    scottinkyscottinky Member Posts: 194
    this is the LAST wagon in central kentucky. I know about the dealer incentive
    and the holdback, but the internet guy refused to sell it below invoice. Dealer fees
    were only $302. I told him this morning that I was passing on the deal and would
    instead pay off my Pathfinder and enjoy the money in my wallet. If he gets desparate,
    and needs to sell it, he cen send me a better offer next weekend :-)

    Local dealers are advertising new 07 Passats discounted $4500 if financed thru VW Credit. I haven't looked at the invoice prices, but VW typically doesn't have a high mark up. Good deal? At least intriguing.

    Just wanted to share my buying experience. Bought my Wolfsburg for invoice (-$750 cashback @ 2.9% finance). I had the option of $1500 cashback, but the finance rate would have been over 6%.

    This was in NJ. Just be careful when they show you the invoice sheet - it usually includes bogus dealer added charges (prep fees). So the invoice price they show you is actually higher than the invoice you'll see on Edmunds.

    Other non-negot fees (at least for me) were: Doc fee was +$199. Window etching (not sure if this is bogus too) was approx extra $130.

    Oh yea, the dealer includes free oil changes, tire replacement, loaner cars for the life of the vehicle (non-transferable). Not worth much, but a nice bonus.

    Anyway, I'm sure there was a few hundred left on the table - but I'm not the type to grind out another hour of psychological negotiations (torture) for an extra $100. Well maybe I am, just not on that day! :)

    Is there a way to quickly locate a particular vehicle. I was looking through websites of VW dealers in LA area and it is a general mess (some of them list passats as 2.0t, some as sedan, some don't list packages). I'm looking for a Passat 2.0t auto with sport package in LA area. Thanks in advance.

    Hey guys,

    So, just to let you know, we just bought a 2007 Wolfsburg Passat yesterday. United Grey with black interior. MSRP 27,889 and we got it for $24,000 - trade of $3,800 which was very generous, so OTD was $20,200 +TTL. Very happy with the deal, the dealership / salesman and the vehicle. Only driven it for 36 hrs, but I'm impressed. It was between this, the Altima and the Saab 9-3...no contest this was the right choice.
