This is nice. A whole bunch-o-people feeling like I am. I've been mad enough to pull my teeth out the past couple years with lack of manual trannies. Anyone here tried to get a VW in a manual package? You know, the VW, the fun little driver's cars? I almost wigged out when I went to the dealer a couple years ago and saw only automatic GTI's. Talk about fear of the second coming on its way. We needed a new pickup last spring and had to drive 3oo miles to Galviston to pick up a used Dodge Ram with a 5 speed manual. That was the ONLY one we could find. The dealers wouldn't even think of ordering a manual, since nobody asks for them anymore. My last 3 VW's were automatics. The 97 Jetta GLX was okay with an automatic. The VR6 can come anyway it wants and I'll be happy, but the last 2 1.8T's were as much fun as "boiled turnip night at Nickerson's Farms in Hays, Kansas." Now, I'm circling around the Passat 2.0T, with great hope and expectations, but lo and behold: "No sunroof with the manual. No fog lights with the manual. No 3.6 V-6 with the manual." The positive side? Well, with such a lack of options for the manual, it is bound to be feather-light. The Jetta GLI is looking rather good to me now. My Theory? VW is not at fault here. Right now as we speak, there are more than a handful of the Passat 3.6's busting down the left lane on Autobahn A3 in 6th gear (manual transmission of course). It isn't VWAG. It's VW of America. They are the ones dictating what we really want. I guess what we need to do, is everyone on this forum, collectively write a letter to your car manufacturer and tactfully, but forcefully, ask, "What are you trying to do to us?" And then they will come around and have pity and come back to their senses and ...... Yeah, right... Can I buy you a turnip tonight? :sick:
Re: Dealer Inventory Tax - [driftracer]
by mpr on Fri May 20 08:10:35 PDT 2005
I thought the dealer inventory tax is exactly that - the "dealer's" tax. There was a class-action lawsuit filed against 636 texas motor vehicle dealerships alleging that the dealerships committed fraud, conspiracy, and DTPA violations by passing on THEIR inventory taxes to consumers as an itemized charge in addition to the price of the vehicle. This lawsuit (Envo-Tech, Inc., Jett Jones, Sheryl M. Nickerson, and Leon M. Andrews, III v. Alford Chevrolet-Geo, et. al.) was filed quite some time ago and may have resulted in the Automobile Dealers Association lobbying Congress to pass a statute allowing them to pass their taxes on to us. And more than likely, they did. I welcome any updates/feedback.
Re: Celebs sell the Prius [gagrice]
by larsb on Wed Mar 23 10:30:35 PST 2005
Nope, I am not mistaken.....and I have certainly not been mistaken "umpteen" times on these boards....:) This event you reference was a Toyota invitation to "many influential" people in that community, SOME of whom happened to be celebs, to an educational introduction for the newly redesigned Prius. The "Hollywood Green Crowd" had already, LONG BEFORE 2003, adopted the orignal Prius as their pet car. Some of these people were prior Prius customers. This was an event to promote the "new 2004" remodel of the Prius. No similar marketing show was held for the original Prius when it debuted in the United States... Toyota was not "creating" this relationship with any celebs - the environmental fabulosity and coolness of the original Prius had already done this. This event was Toyota taking full advantage of a marketing opporunity that had been created OUTSIDE OF TOYOTA a few years ago, with the original Prius. Quoting the story: "It was a thank you' to our current customers," Nickerson said of the event, held earlier this month. "The purpose also was to build on the enthusiasm that they have had for the Prius." And for those short of memory, the original Prius, although a fantastic and evolutionary car, had some shortcomings (smallish, style challenged, and certainly under-publicized) and was not taking the market by storm. Toyota wanted to make sure the new Prius got the proper introduction as to how much superior this new redesign was. Once again, I reiterate, Toyota has NEVER used paid celebs in any Prius advertisement in the USA. Period, ever.....:)
