Hey everyone, member for a while, but only a spectator really. I've been working on getting a GTI and it seems it's about that time. SOOO here is the deal...

2009 United Gray GTI (6MT) - With only 5,700 miles! :word:
-Leather
-Sunroof
-Detroits
-HID Headlights

With a ($2,100) 6 year 72,000 mile warranty.....$24,000 OTD.

PLEASE lemme know what you guys think. THANKS!!!

I paid 22k OTD new?

Bought mine for 17K with only 14K on the odo. Lease turn in, CPO.

Prices for used car prices have been inflated since 2010. So depending on the area, cars are going to be more or less.

let's say this car MSRP at 28k so 30k OTD, and:
if you are paying cash, you save about 6k.

if you are financing:
it's fair to assume you'll be paying at least 2k in interest, so you are only going to be saving 4k for a 3 year old car. Either way I look at it, not a good deal.

I believe there are 0% financiing deals now for GTI, if you get a brand new one and qualifies for 0% APR, you can use the money you save on interest, and put that towards the actual car.

at least it's a 2009, so it comes with TSI not the problematic FSI. (what I got)
