VW Dealers Pricing 2015 Passats UNDER $15K - Are You A Taker At That Price?

Volkswagen has recently confessed admitted to a steep decline in sales this past November thanks to a 25-percent decline for the Volkswagen brand and a mind bending, 60-percent cliff dive for the soon-to-be replaced Volkswagen Passat.

Apparently, there are still plenty of 2015 Passats and Jettas available to loyal would-be owners along with a variety of other weird birds, such as the 2015 Volkswagen Beetle R-Line Convertible and whatever dark backlot corner is still molderizing the aptly named Final Edition Volkswagen Eos.

All this corporate bloodletting brings on an interesting distinction for the Passat. You can now buy the very last, brand-new mid-sized sedan in America that is less than $15,000: a 2015 Volkswagen Passat 1.8T S with a 5-speed manual.

Should you?

A screaming deal on a car you should lease not buy

Put a huge mark-down on the Touareg, and I'll run to the dealership right now.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland and Summit would still be better values with a lot more modern standard content.

$25K base and $35K fully loaded and it might be worthy of consideration, but even then it is a terribly compromised, class trailing design.

Since I already have a 2014, the only benefit to a 2015 would be the latest TDI engine. But since I can't buy one of those, not much else would interest me. Unless the Touareg comes WAY down!

The Passat isn't a completely bad car, but it needs a "Hyundai" warranty at any price point. I'd say lease for no longer than the short warranty period and enjoy driving a Passat for the price of a Fiesta.
