Volkswagon sign then drive event
Im sure you guys have seen this advertised where you put 0 down at signing. My gf is serioulsy thinking about doing this because she is looking to lease a new car and loves the Jetta. I was wondering if any of you guys knew anything about this or the downsides to this program. Let me know. Thanks!

I miss my 03 CL-S :(
Everyone I know that has bought a Jetta or Passat has ended up regretting it because of reliability issues. I'd check around the VW/Jetta forums to see what people are saying just in case.

Ask what is the money factor on the VW lease. It could be a bait thing where you pay nothing up front but get you on the interest rate which is called money factor in leasing. If the rates and terms sound ok I would lease a VW instead of buying it outright to see if the damm thing is halfway reliable.

Of the people I know who've owned Jettas.... always had tranny problems.

The interior materials might be first rate, but does that matter if it sounds as if there were a baby tooth clattering around insided the dash? Volkswagen loyalists get used to these problems. Honda and Toyota fans would be appalled.
Nuff said.

It is a nice car, but I agree VW tend to get back to the shop for electrical issues. Just make sure the dealer can guarantee a free loaner if this happens.
I got my XC90 with $0 due at signing. Well I paid $200 for registration and tags. That was my total out of pocket.
