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.

Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.

2011 lease rates seem to be have stayed the same as last month (You can look at last month’s post for those numbers). No surprise there. There is a chance that rates could change mid-month, so I will keep you posted if anything changes. The CC still have the $1250 lease cash, but I don’t see the $750 cash anymore. It may still be available in some areas, so be sure to inquire about it.

For those open to buying, VW Credit is offering 0% financing for up to 60 month on the CC Sport DSG. In my opinion, that is a far better deal than leasing, since there is no interest on that loan. As a matter of fact, many VW models have the special 0% financing for up to 60 months, so you may want to have your dealer crunch out some numbers to see if buying works out better for you.
