Agreed today at Boucher VW in Janesville to buy a closeout 2012 VW that we looked at in Racine the other day for $22,044. We put the $6K toward it from the sale of the 01 TDI. It is standard model, 6-speed manual. The 12's are on the old Passat frame so it will have the wheelbase of a Passat in prior years' production. There is a 3-year or 75,000 mile warranty on this car and all oil changes and such are done by VW so I won't have a lot of car work to do. Have to keep my skills up on the truck and van.
Picked it up on September 20, 2012.
Took the VW on its inaugural trip! Around Lake Michigan. Down to Chicago, around Gary, up through St Joseph, MI...north over the Macinnac Bridge, across the U.P. and down to Green Bay, visiting Pam & Nate & kids on the way home. About 1250 miles. Took 5 days and amazingly got 52.3 miles per gallon.
