Of all 2012 VW lease rates this month. Only the Passat shows a lot of promise ($1000 lease cash available and a good MF/RV). The CC isn’t half bad either because of the $1250 lease cash that’s available, but it’s RV and MF aren’t as good. Some good deals to be head, however, I should warn you…More and more people are reporting that VW will charge “market value” on payoffs if you try to trade-in the car before lease end. With that in mind, you better be willing to keep the car for the entire term of your lease or you will end up paying a pretty penny trying to get off your lease.

It would be cool if my local dealers weren’t marking up the Passat TDi’s by $2000 to $5000. It’s only 850 miles each way to the next large urban area!
@shane well, that’s the TDI. Most dealers charge a premium for that with gas prices creeping back up into the $4 territory. If you get the 2.0T, you should be able to get a more reasonable sale price. Although, being 850 miles from another large urban area does make negotiating a bit tough.
Do you have the numbers for the GLI Autobahn?
@george. nope. what you see is what I got. However, one of my readers recently picked one up, so i will share that info as soon as I get it.
Hello G.
Long time no talk 🙂
I am looking to dump my 335 and get a Passat SEL Premium. Money factor and Residual same through out all Passat line?
Thanks!
E.O
Hey! Long time indeed! Going from 335 to Passat? Why!?
I don’t have those numbers, but I would expect residuals to be lower. That’s usually the case on the higher end models.
Hey G, first off great website! I understand that these prices you post are for the southern Cali area but is it the same for the Base Rate numbers and Residual values as well? I live in south florida and I’m in between either a CC or the new Passat. Thanks again!
Thanks for your reply, G
I am getting married and need a four-door sedan. Plus, 335 is getting old (it has been two years already).
when you find out residuals and MF for SEL line, please do post. Thanks!
@carlos. The residuals and money factors for VWs are typically nationwide, so your region shouldn’t matter. The sale price and fees are a whole different ball game though.
@E.O. Congrats!!!! Wow, 2 yrs and the 335 is considered old. LOL that’s sad. If I come across it elsewhere, I’ll post it, but don’t hold your breath on it. I already got my list of VW numbers for Sept and this is it.
Thanks, G!
I mean I am getting tired of my 335, not that a 2 yr old BMW is already considered old 🙂
I will call VW dealers and find out those numbers out and post if I can.
Cheers
