How to Calculate The Dealer Cost of a Volkswagen Golf R:

Formula for Calculating Dealer Cost:

Example: Base Volkswagen Golf R invoice price + the dealer Invoice price of options + destination - Holdback = Total Dealer Cost.
What is Holdback? A hidden amount that manufacturers give back to a dealer. It is a percentage of the MSRP or the Invoice price.

Total Dealer Cost - Rebate and Incentive + Taxes / Licensing Fees = True Dealer Cost. (You can get rebates and incentives here.)

Note: All Volkswagen Golf MSRP, invoice and dealer cost dollar figures above are subject to change without notice.

A note about rebates: Most rebates are subtracted from the "on the road" figure. In most cases, you can have the rebate if you are arranging your own financing or you are paying cash. If you decide to use the manufacturer’s low interest financing, you do not usually get the rebate. Ask your dealer for details.
