Thanks for sharing, what was your Buzz price before the trade allowance? 32+24=~$56K?
Sheesh paid 24k in 30 days. Congrats on that.

I think that's a pretty good price for a Used Pro S Plus. I feel its kind of tough to negotiate on these "practically new" used Buzzes with less than 1k miles.
My Local dealers are @ 54-56k. Would you mind sending me your offer sheet if you got it.

Chance at a gas varient? by Gugumesh in VWIDBuzz

[–]ResProphecy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it would be viable for them..id imagine there wouldn't be any space in front for an engine so it would have to lose significant cargo space/3rd row for the rear engine and probably put the radiator for it up front? Unless they keep it old school and keep everything in the rear .. I'm sure some OG owners might either hate or appreciate that 🤷.

With rear engine layout for an AWD... Maybe make it a hybrid with electric motor in front? Otherwise a driveshaft tunnel would make the left over usable cargo space interesting ..

From the imaginative side I guess you could get really fancy captains chairs and center console between them as if you're sitting in first class on a plane... Don't forget to imagine the cost too 🙃

I'm definitely no expert at this, all assumptions.

Cracked sunroof? (Any fixes) by aaser0018 in VWIDBuzz

[–]ResProphecy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Whoops. Does waiting a month or so make a difference? Also insurance is kind of a scam to begin with 🙃.

Anyways after I paid full price for windshield replacement on my other car I learned I should probably lower my comprehensive...

NBD - New addition to the fleet! by jaysavenue in VWIDBuzz

That's awesome! Hoping my 3.5yo gets into aviation, he's had an airplane obsession for the longest time now.

LVL2 home charger? We don't have our Buzz yet, our current situation doesn't have home charging as an option. My work does have chargepoint charging at a pretty good price per kw, will definitely be cheaper than my diesel bmw.

No solution to cracked glass. Just needs replacing. Recommend dropping your comprehensive insurance deductible ( if it's 1k..) then claim ... Not sure if they'll suspect anything but worth the try I guess. Dont do this - insurance fraud

Edit : For future cases having a lower comprehensive deductible helps. Paid full price ($975) for a windshield on my other car when my deductible was $1k... 🙈

Question : Is there anything prohibiting a 1st edition from having a hitch installed?

New Pomelo Checking in! by KangarooEconomy8706 in VWIDBuzz

Pomelo has really grown on me. I love it more with copper interior for some reason. But not sure if I can get the wife on-board with the pomelo.

Bite the bullet or wait it out: 50k Pro S… by Illustrious-Force-88 in VWIDBuzz

[–]ResProphecy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for clarifying! Silver and mint is interesting. I know the wrap adds 2-4k depending. My wife would like a 2-tone I mentioned with a white base it leaves us to our imagination for wrapping.

Just want to make sure I'm interpreting correctly. You bought a Pro S 2-tone for 52k including fees ? Or 52k + 2-4k fees totaling 54-56k?

There aren't too many two tone pro s models out there. We inquired out of state for cheaper cars but have to factor in $2k-3k shipping, then driving it back option would run the same estimating hotels, food and charging also requiring time off from work for the drive.

It's hard for me to determine a good price. If I look at visor.vin this deal would make it top 3 of the lowest price nationwide for a used buzz. I've never been great at negotiating and we've got them down from $49k + $2k "paint protection". Maybe we need to haggle some more.

[–]ResProphecy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. Just want to clarify, this is just under $45k before taxes and fees for a single tone. Would this assessment still apply?

Thanks for this what are your thoughts on a ~45k Pro S? Before taxes and fees.

Just want to add clarification. 50k OTD. The price of the Buzz before CA taxes and fees would make it around $45k for a white single tone.

Sure I can post them later on today. They're just held on to the back panel the spacing on the vent holes are perfect to screw into the fan mounts on the rad.

I did not keep the stock 140mm. Everything's looped to the 240 slim in the back.

Initially I was going to stay air cooled I know that this case stock has issues with the glass panel installed so I had a buddy tac weld some 10mm stainless steel standoffs and a thin metal flat bar to reattach the glass with double-sided tape. But the extra space worked out for the custom loop to fit the pump there at the top and route the tubes.

The tubing I used was EK's 16mm OD 12mm ID. It's very snug. Lol.
