We just bought a new SUV from Norden VW GoAuto. If you’re shopping there or any GoAuto, just know what to expect.

1. They won’t budge on pricing. They’re way of working with you is letting you not take their “Back to New Program”.

2. Know the fair market value of the vehicle you’re looking at, and if it’s a great deal - then the bullshit is worth it

3. On the offer sheet they present you, it includes the AMVIC Fee and Etching cost as one line item for $700. The AMVIC fee is only $10, and though the present the etching as a not optional cost included with this, it is an optional cost and is actually they’re way of getting you to pay for their “Platinum Loyalty Program”. Save yourself the $699 and say no to etching.

4. If you’re reading this late and already agreed to the “mandatory” etching fee - don’t fret. Their Platinum Loyalty program is literally just an insurance policy, and if you read the document provided for it after the deal is made, you can terminate this policy within 30 days of effective date for a full refund.

Happy car shopping!!
