How much should I pay... Tiguan pricing.

Yes, I plan to do some sort of paint and leather protection. Will have a look through the forum first, but will make a seperate post about it.

Greetings from Melbourne

Just a did a deal and thought I would share.

Tiguan MY 12 155TSI
Mats
Metallic paint - Deep black pearl effect
RNS510 Sat Nav with RVC Plus
Park Assist
Bi-Xenon with cornering lights
Leather upholstery frnt sprts & elec drivers seat

As per the dealers price list $58220 without mats
Per the dealers calculations, it came to $58883. They must be special mats!!!!

Anyways, done the deal of 51K flat, drive away, or if I choose to pay for the vehicle with my Amex card, it would be $52100.

Only problem is, is that there is no vehicle with those specs. It has to be custom ordered which results in a circa 5 month delay!! Really, 5 months. Is this a supply/demand problem, i.e., the Tiguan is overwhelmingly popular and supply cannot keep up, or is it something else?

BTW, I had a good (so far) buying experience. Salesperson was nice and affable, not pushy. All in all, I'm quite happy. I'm sure if I'd gone to another 1or 2 dealers I would've received a better price, but hey, I'm happy with it.

As an aside, I loved putting the gear selector into "S", it really makes the car go from ho-hum to a nasty little SUV. Very impressed. Now for the long arduous wait.

51k with corporate discount??

No. No corporate discount.

**DoggieHowser** · 10-03-2012, 06:35 PM

Wow. That's more than the rest of us got

Hi Doggie

I wouldn't be too phased about it. There'll always be someone with a better deal. I'm sure someone will post next week/month of an even better deal. Just enjoy your purchase (once it arrives). I've learnt not to sweat those details.

Cheers
