Best laid plans...I wanted to drive them both another year, but alas the fates have decided. My baby started to give me a constant shudder at 75mph, VW can't find it. I drive this car for work so I need it to be safe and reliable. I stopped feeling safe. Bought it 2.5 years ago @ 75k, will turn it in on the 29th with 177K+\-. Already found several 2015's with the options I want through USAA car buying service. I will drive my wife's JSW for another month or so while the process completes on hers, then off to the races in a 2015 GSW SEL, anything under 50k miles is good with me, I will put a 100k more before 2020 anyhow. In the meantime I am using some buyback money to pick up a Jeep Liberty CRD to tow behind the RV and for my wife to commute with. We don't really need 2 TDI's, she really never used it to it's max potential, her commute is like 15 minutes, all under 50mph.

I did stop at a dealer in Tallahassee that had 5 GSW TDI's priced from 25-35k, but when you can pick them up for 18-20k with under 50k miles, why bother with a new one. First 2 years depreciation on the NOS TDI's is 15 grand. Does not compute even with 0% and 5k in dealer cash.

See some of you in the MK7 Forum soon I am sure.

At best and worst 7-8 cents a miles factor..... then plus or minus a condition factor.

Miles and condition does add up.

You get what you pay for. maybe.

When were you by that dealer? 0%, 5k and that ridiculous warranty are starting to look pretty good to me.
