Mike and Norman,
Thanks for responding to my posting. Glad to see that I'm not the only one
that thinks this way. To be honest, I've actually put a car for sale in the
paper once before and immediately changed my mind so when people called I
just said it was sold (again to me!) My wife never believes me anymore when
I take her shopping for cars.
In reality, it would take a very good deal from the VW dealer on the '03 MV
to get me to part with my trusty '93 MV. Currently the '03 vehicle they have
lists for $28,660 (MV + paint+ destination) and they have reduced it to
$26,900 and suggest there is more room. They say this price is $400 over
invoice. No 0% financing deals like Chrysler or the others. If they had that
I'd immediately take the plunge. I also have to add 6% NJ sales tax-ouch!
That alone more than pays for the entire timing belt water pump job at my
local VW dealer. I may call again tomorrow and see if they have anything
else to offer.
Ron
