Seems like a good deal you got.
The Boiler Room-esque VW dealership in this area, offered me same lease length term and mileage, but $500/month with 1k down. Apparently, I have gullible, naive, and idiot written all over my face. And this idiot salesdick thought this was a great deal when he presented it to me. His manager is an even bigger douche for even attempting to present this crap to me.
And I'm not looking to lease. IF I was looking to lease, I would never put money down, or agree to pay $500/month on a $27xxx vehicle. Often times, the other German luxury brands have similar or better deals.
When I first went to this particular place, I only popped in to drive the car, since I had never driven a GTI, let alone a VW. To play nice, I allowed them to do their song-and-dance. Big mistake. Wasted 2 hours of my life, and I was so hungry too...
thats absurd, i also have a lease on an '11 328i M-Sport and thats $500/month with ZERO DOWN. sticker was 44k
your dealer is out of their mind
then again Florida (where i got mine) is the best place to buy cars due to volume
Minimum to shoot for is no less than 4K off msrp.
$4k?! Wow. How is this even possible?
For example. For a 4 Door Base DSG with mats (apparently here in snow regions, they add mats to the car), I offered $24,490 + TTL. Response: This is "$500 below the actual price that we pay Volkswagen for the car." He countered with $24,950 + TTL.
So for the members here who got $4k off MSRP. How is this even possible on a current MY, not the previous year? Most of my conversations have been via email or phone. Going in this Saturday to talk numbers.
just a thought but idk if your conisdering the gti because its a gti or because the motor or whatver reason but you can get a gli base DSG according to vw.com the msrp is like 900 dollars less then a base 4 door gti
truth be told you are going to have to do some serious shopping around. and i recommend looking at everything within a few hours driving distance that you'd be willing to go to. work dealerships against each other and have print outs of other offers that you can use to negotiate prices. but my advice again is don't take anything lower than $4K off msrp.
does it have to be a 2013? you should be able to get a deal on a 2012 right now. team vw in indiana has a gray gti 4 door for $24,895. msrp on that pig is $29,015. just a thought.
Actually, I'd consider a 2012. But I haven't been able to find a 2012 in this area, 150 mile radius, aside from red, which I'd prefer not to get.
And thanks so much this find, will look into this.
Is there a direct link to that price though? I only see the sticker price.
yea i mean idk how long you can hold off but i think they said first quarter of 2014 is when the mk7 comes out in NA so im sure come september october and so on they are going to be pushing to get the '12 and '13's off the lot to clear for new inventory and the fact that its loosing more money by sitting there and getting older
