Did you have a down payment? Just curious.

Just want to say -- I love that black and white picture.

Back to my original topic... I'm sure it's been mentioned elsewhere, but I'm astounded at how little knowledge salespeople have of the products they're selling. I've been emailing back and forth with a salesperson after I did this test drive last week and now they may have a new 2014 they're...

Sorry for the off-topic, but Toyota recalled another 1.7M cars today. Just sayin'. And they are the most boring, ugly things I've ever seen. IMHO.

czeetah, I don't think I'd get near that price on a new one, although I agree it's close enough I would just go ahead with the new. I do have access to the supplier discount which means I can get one for $500 under invoice. I'm thinking of waiting a month or so to see if they have any holiday...

So here's an interesting twist. I've been looking for some time and have a saved search on CarMax's site to meet my criteria. Got a hit today (two actually). Both 2013 TDI SE's with a 6MT. One has 18K miles for $24K, one has 22K for $22,600. The 18K one has a Carfax record of some accident...

The SE I drove yesterday had a standard mirror--actually, both the DSG and 6MT models did. Considering power is already run up there for the lights and new SOS stuff, I can't imagine swapping it out would be a big deal. I'm going to find out soon enough I think.

I'm sure I can get the mirror I want, but the sales individual yesterday told me it was "only available on higher trim lines." I find that hard to believe.

It's interesting how you get attached to the stuff -- the other vehicles I have are decked out with gadgets. The SE is really a perfect fit for what I need in a daily driver. I drive 400-500 miles a week. I never use sunroofs anyway. It's got heated seats, a backup camera, and bluetooth (an...

Me too.

Thanks I think my search is done. The only reason I didn't buy today is that I need to move the proposal through the appropriations committee. (i.e., my wife). :p

Hello all -- been lurking & researching for a long time. Want to say thanks to everyone for the great information here. It's been invaluable in helping make a decision on buying a new car. So, the fun stuff: I drove an SE DSG because their stock system was messed up and they couldn't find...
