    Brand New 2015 Volkswagen TDI Models Back On Sale

      Want a brand new 2015 Volkswagen TDI?

    If the Volkswagen diesel emission scandal hasn't swayed you from wanting one, then you'll be happy to hear Volkswagen will once again be able to sell brand-new 2015 model year TDI models. Green Car Reports says near 11,000 TDI models will soon be back up for sale once they are updated with new software, making them legal.

    Volkswagen does caution those interested in picking up a new TDI to call their nearest dealership to see if they have any in stock.

    But that's not all. Volkswagen is offering some massive discounts on these models. CarsDirect reports that Volkswagen is offering 0% APR for up to 72 months and $5,000 cash bonus if you decide to buy. Interested in leasing one? Volkswagen will offer a cash bonus of $8,500. 

    There are a couple of caveats to this offer. First, you need to have an excellent credit history to qualify for either offer. Second is that Volkswagen isn't advertising this offer.

    "We will not be advertising the available incentives from our financing arm as they [sic] vehicle availability will vary per dealership," said Volkswagen spokeswoman Jeannine Ginivan.

    So by word of mouth they will dump the Diesels on the market and call it good. Good offers if you can find one that meets your needs. Wonder where the bulk of the diesels are?

    I just checked autotrader and I didn't see anything available yet. I see the golf wagons that are TDI's but I feel like they have been there for awhile...

    From what I gathered, Boston/ New York area.

     

    And most will not be selling for those prices.....we have a local one here that is only a grand off MSRP.......

    :huh: That makes no sense considering they are a couple years old and have been sitting. Nope if they want me to consider buying one, then 10K off to start.

    Oh, I'd totally agree....they need quite the markdown to get me to even think about it.....

    But I get the feeling dealerships will take advantage though....

    I wouldn't mind a nicely loaded Passat TDI for those deals.

     

    Right color, right price could talk me into one.....8)

    My friend Aaron got a very good deal on a 2015 TDI wagon.  I still miss mine, sold it back about 7 weeks ago.

    It got 58 Miles per gallon on a highway trip right before I sold it back...

    As far as the older TDI's go, a bunch have been coming through flattened on flat bed trucks at a towing lot near my daughters school. TDI Cup Jetta, Beetle Covnertible, several other interesting older Vee dubs flat as a pancake...

    Ya mean they actually crushed them? Wonder if they were models that could not be fixed cheaply.

    None of the first gen models have the ad Blue and will not be able to be repaired easily.  methinks VW may well crush up to about half of what it is buying back...they are not going to fix and resell a car that is 7 year sold with 100,000 plus miles on it.

    Interesting, yea I would agree that if an auto has 100K miles on it and needs more than a software flash upgrade, it is not worth it so recycle the auto.

    The last thing VW needs right now is more legal liability.

    Back on topic, I know of several people who have bought these new 2015's.  My wife brought up finding a 2015 TDI Beetle manual for her to drive, i may look at one...still wildly unsure of what I want to replace the Jetta with.

    Ah okay. I thought you were looking for as close to a Jetta TDI replacement as possible.

    • As the not so good book says, Money is the root of all sorts of evil.   Yes How aggressively do you mountain bike and what tire do you use? I don't really mountain bike but am starting to ride some nasty places, need more aggressive treads on on of my bikes. 
    • As far as politics go, the US still sucks! Phoque the US.      The US is too stupid to understand the little things, let alone the BIIIIG things in life.  ALWAYS shooting themselves in the foot.  Literally too. https://www.espn.com/blog/new-york-giants/post/_/id/58206/ten-years-later-how-plaxico-burress-shooting-unraveled-nfls-best-team   I am embarrassed by being on the same continent as you American phoques.   
    • It would be quite foolish to do a Canada/US fight with hockey.  1.  Although there are more American teams in the NHL, always has been, the American population is greater than Canadian. 10 times more greater, the NHL STILL is predominantly  Canadian born players.  Approx 42% in 2025 versus the approx 30% of American players. 2. The best of the NHL players ARE Canadian.  While other nations may have a prolific player here and there, like an Ovechkin, Russian, who happens to be the GOAT in goal scoring as of last year, or a Lane Hutson, a rookie American defenseman playing for Montreal who is poised to be one of the best defenseman in the NHL in his time eventually,  consistently the best players ARE from Canada.    While the Stanley Cup will probably be awarded to an American team again this year, the best player, the Captain of the team and the coaches are probably going to be ALL Canadian not to mention that the make-up of the team WILL  be  Canadian majority by a % of at LEAST 50%.  The rest of the team will be a hodge podge of other nations. A couple of Nordic Europeans, a couple of Russians and a couple of Americans.   Baseball...baseball is a sport to make fun of Canada with.  Basketball too.  Although there are quite a few Canadians that are shining in the NBA.  Talk is that Montreal is in the talks of getting a NBA team.   It helped that 2 prominent players on opposing teams in the finals were from Montreal.   Make fun of Montreal and/or Canada that we cant support any other sport other than hockey. Its fair.  Make fun of Toronto ALL you want.  I will probably join you. But to try to get my goat on hockey will never work...    PS.  Jim Montgomery is from Montreal.  He went to my high school.  Or I went to his as he is a couple of years older than I.  I probably saw him in the hallways, but I do not remember him.   I played on the high school hockey team. He did not. He probably wasnt interested as he played for city leagues. I did not.
