What to expect?

[trek7000]

I've narrowed down my choices for a new SUV and am seriously ready to shop around for a Touareg V6. Based on your experiences, around how much are dealers willing to go, for pricing on a new Touareg? I'm thinking of going from dealer invoice and up, but willing to go down from MSRP if it's a good enough deal.

Thanks in advance.

It's going to depend on a couple of things.

One: Are SUVs in big demand where you live? If so, dealers don't have move very much on price.

2: Dealers seem to be more willing to deal on V6s over V8s

3: If you're looking at the V10 TDI - what you see on the sticker is very likely what you're going to pay (if the dealer hasn't already added on an "adjusted market value" tag).

4: Credit rating. I have found over time and from talking to a lot of people, if you have an excellet credit rating.... the dealer will play with you on the price. If you have an average credit rating - do your dealing before they run the credit report.

5: CASH ALWAYS TALKS THE LOUDEST!!!

I got my V6 for about $1000 below list back in November here in NJ.
I made a deal over the internet with a local dealer. I said I was paying CASH! End of the month, they jumped on the deal!
