my dealer has a 99.5 1.8T quattro, completely loaded, for 29,700... good deal?

I got the same car for $1000 less.

Seems high, be more specific on "fully loaded."

find out from Edmunds and KBB and Carpoint if there are any dealer incentives on 99.5s. If you are buying (not leasing), you might start out with an offer UNDER invoice, which will freak them out unless you explain that you know they are getting cashola from AoA.
