In this iDriveSoCal Podcast, we connect with Randy Halcomb from Ontario Volkswagen – (Ontario VW is one of several SoCal autodealerships iDSC is proud to partner with). Randy joins me for a special preview of the Arteon, and to share details on a few remaining CC’s still on the lot Ontario Volkswagen - available for purchase at nearly a third of their original price! (Call Randy directly on his cell if you’re interested: 909-772-1728.) ***Transcript*** Recording date – July 18, 2018 at in Ontario, CA Randy Halcomb: I had chance to drive it, and was really blown away with the acceleration, the power. I love the sleek exterior where it's the four-door, but it looks like a coupe. Tom Smith: Welcome to iDriveSoCal, the podcast all about mobility from the automotive capital of the United States, Southern California. Tom Smith here. And today, I am out at ... We, you and I, Mr. and Mrs. podcast listener, we are out at Ontario Volkswagen in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, California. And joining me, joining us, is Mr. Randy Halcomb of Ontario Volkswagen. Randy, thanks for coming aboard. Randy Halcomb: Thank you. Good to have you out here again. And we love doing this. Tom Smith: So, the topic that Randy and I are covering today, it's a little bit different. As usual on the iDriveSoCal Podcast, how many of these do I open with, "Now, we're going to do it a little bit different." We're going to do it a little bit different again. So, we have ... Volkswagen has the Volkswagen CC. The CC has been the largest sedan that Volkswagen has offered. And as everyone that follows automotive, as well as Volkswagen, knows, the Arteon is going to be coming out here any minute now, right? I mean, pretty much. Randy Halcomb: Yes. It was, I think, slated the third quarter of 2018. And so, I'm assuming that, you know, probably here in the next month or two that it should start getting released. Tom Smith: So, Volkswagen is going to alert you guys, but it's coming, and it's already out in Europe. And the Arteon has a lot of fanfare that is following it. It's a beautiful vehicle. We're going to touch a little bit on that in a minute, but before we get to that, again, a little bit different on the iDriveSoCal Podcast, we're going to talk about the couple of CCs, Volkswagen CC vehicles that are sitting on the lot here at Ontario Volkswagen right now. And they are ridiculous buys. Now, as you listen to the iDriveSoCal Podcast, I don't think you've ever heard us pitch a deal. That's not what we do. We're not a radio station barking deals at you in 30-second, 15-second, or 60-second spots. That's not what we do. We're all about educating you, our listening audience, and thank you for listening, and sharing information that can be useful and helpful. Now, in this case, myself personally, I am a huge, huge, huge value buyer. And, in fact, if one of my leases was up right now, and I needed a vehicle, I would probably jump on one of these two deals because it's such a situation where Volkswagen's doing away with the CC. So, that model is going away. But to be clear, Volkswagen is not going away. So, the manufacturer and the dealer are still standing by behind the vehicle 100%. The vehicle sticker price, I think, is about $36,000-ish, and Ontario Volkswagen has two of them right now that are how much off, Randy? Randy Halcomb: We've got them priced out here for $8000 off MSRP, but anybody listening to this podcast, you know,
