We do have relatives in your neck of the woods we wouldn't mind seeing. Needless to say, it would make a nice road trip.

thoughts appreciated,

Hey Garth,

Thank you for the opportunity to EARN your business!

I will send you my quote here on the open forum as I will put my deal out to everyone here on the Club.

Allthough I do not have the invoice pricing as of yet, my deal on ordered 2009 VW Touareg V6 TDI's will be just $700 over dealer invoice, $55 DOC fee, and NO OTHER BALONEY!


I will display the invoice as soon as I get the figures!

I would be happy to pick you up from Phila Int'l airport or to drive the vehicle to terminal for transport purposes!

My deposit structure will be just $100 until time that I can physically order the vehicle. I will then ask for $400 more to solitify the order!

The deposit is 100% refundable if something where to happen beyond control!

Thanks again for the opportunity!

Regards,Chris

221HP or 240HP?

I noticed they're still quoting the 221HP TDI engine in this pricing. I thought VW had already gone to the 240HP TDI??

Anyone know the real story?

From what I read on VWVortex, I believe you can blame the US emissions requirements BS on costing the engine 19 horsepower in US form.

You'll most likely see mid to high 20's on the highway.

I am seeing a flurry of stories about the newly upgraded V6TDI engine... which may have originally been mentioned last fall.

I have to assume the 2009 will have this or better...

Yeah, thats probably right,,, and why its 221, not 240.

Oh well, I have the older V6 and thats around there.

So long as its not a dog on the accelerator.
