$66,500 with metallic paint, and panaramic sunroof... I think I did well.

Yeah I just saw that price. Good time to be buying one... Wishing I didn't sign on that 150 a week ago. I hate buyer's remorse.

If I were you and hadn't taken delivery of the vehicle yet, I'd be asking the dealer to honour the new pricing. They could easily cancel the order and re-order the car.

A lot of the discount is being provided by VW and not the dealer so the dealer may be better off to rewrite the contract anyway.

So I've asked another dealer to quote the same car, one that quoted me close to best price I got, but not the one I did the deal with. The new advertised of $64,990 price is obviously base model, no metallic paint, and no sunroof. RRP with those options, is $69,700. I got quoted $66,900 for this package, still more than I paid, so I guess I shouldn't feel too bad... I suppose it means I got a pretty good deal a week ago. All this sale means essentially is that everyone get get a pretty good deal now... you don't just need fleet pricing (which I had). I don't expect them to drop $5K off of an already low fleet price. Probably doesn't work that way, based on the small print: Not available to fleet, gov’t or rental buyers or with other offers. I'm still going to hit up my dealer for something. I want the wheel upgrade, and I want a good price... This seems like good time to apply some leverage.

Yes I went through a similar exercise the other day and if you were using corp discount this ended up at about the same place as the sale price. It effectively means that everyone gets the discount from VW whereas before it was only the corp discounts that received any subsidy from VW.

I think the price you negotiated with corp discount and the paint and sunroof options is pretty reasonable. I don't think you'd get much better if you started with the $64,990 sale price.

What's the best deal on 150 TDI. I have a friend negotiating at 62.5k with sunroof.
There are not any available with Driver Assist.

That's quite a bit better than I did. Thanks for making me feel bad. Do it.
