2010 JSW
We are selling my wife's 2010 JSW back at the beginning of next month. She would like to get a fuel efficient wagon with a manual for a replacement. Shooting for early 2018 to buy. In the mean time, she will be driving my Miata. The "new" 2015s that the dealers are selling don't seem to be a very good deal to me. Does anyone have some inside info on when VW might start to modify and resell the buyback 2015s? We would be looking at those and the new Alltrack.

I'm very interested as well. Did any of the 'usual suspects' with good dealer connections hear anything they can share?
You can buy a new 2017 GSW for $2500 less than a 'new' 2015 TDI. I had a 2017 GSW S model priced out for me to $23,300 incl. fees and (9.25%) taxes, and was told the Alltrack runs about $2000 higher. So even the Alltrack might be cheaper than the 2015 TDI.

I am not sure if we would hear anything before the current VW financing deals expire, which I think is May 31, 2017. I am also curious on the sale price of buyback TDI's. Hopefully some manual transmission Jettas will be available by then.

Even then, it's not like the buybacks would qualify for the 0%. However, I think you're right in that VW (a) wouldn't want to cannibalize the "new" TDI sales while they're moving 'em at asking price, and (b) the reintroduction of the used ones is bound to introduce some downward pressure on the book values.

Water seeks its' own level. -- (better) Condition and (lower) miles will set the benchmark

Seems to me you should expect CPO-like pricing if there is any volume of cars available.

Perhaps, but some of those cars are going to have too many miles or have other CPO disqualifications. And will VW keep the buybacks within their dealer network, or send to less-than-desirable specimens to wholesale? I'm guessing dealers with the peaches initially, then later off to the auction lots.

Typically CPO warranties improve upon base warranties, so it'll be interesting to see what VW comes up with.

Canada did approve the fix. They basically just piggybacked the EPA's decision.

The courts took a little longer to hash out the details than the US.

Drove home my new '15 TDI GSW last night.

It's Canada, but this dealership has posted a list of the pre-owned 2015 TDI they will be getting.

http://www.clarkdale.ca/2015-20l-tdi-sale
Assuming Clarkdale is using the buyback website to determine anticipated returns they should know that no Interior dealerships are available for consumers to choose. Clarkdale was the closest listed dealership for me. I didn't sweat it as this can be changed apparently but they probably won't be getting as many returns as expected.

Question I forgot to ask dealer and can't find it here. Does anyone know if the 11 year, 162,000 warranty start the day I took delivery, like the factory 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty, or does it start in 2015. Thanks

Pure guess "the day you put it into service." ~~ 2017 plus 11 = 2028

And remember it is fully transferable to any new owner(s) ~~ up to 162,000 miles

Yes, it is clearly stated that the emissions warranty start date is the day the car went into service.
