I have 2 modded TDI New Beetles. VW diesel is amazing. I can cruise at 120mph and my car gets 55mpg at normal highway speeds. If you want to learn a lot in a short time, check out this site.

So for a new TDI beetle with air conditioning and automatic transmission what should I expect to pay after the haggling?
I've always purchased my cars new but drive them until they are dead and worthless. Last Ford truck I purchased new and I traded in when it turned 300,000 miles. I plan to do the same with the Jetta.

Offer them OTD (out the door) what the sticker says. Not the additional dealer add-on sticker, the factory sticker. If it's $25K on the sticker, that's what I would shoot for. That way you're getting the tax and license paid for at least. Don't expect huge profits on those smaller cars like pickups. hth's

They aren't cheap. BUT, if you maintain one of these properly, you can expect to get around 500K miles. Maybe more.
I've never bought a new one, always used. Partly because I want to modify the car. It has to be out of warranty. Never had an automatic either, always standard.
Go out and drive one or three. They are bigger than you think and hold a lot of stuff. TDI's aren't always easy to find and the dealers know this and charge accordingly.
Absolutely! If you're looking for good mileage, you go with the 5-speed. Never the automatic.
5-speed is more fun to drive too. Also less chance it will be stolen. Few people know how to drive them........
I took a car on a test drive the other day as part of a paid research study. I had to drive the whole time because none of the available sales people drove stick!
