2015 Volkswagen Golf — is this actually a good used-car deal?

The online price looks competitive, but I am trying to judge the entire deal rather than the headline number. What should I compare besides mileage, history, condition and a PPI before deciding what it is worth? Mileage is about 138,000.

The trap is a pretty payment hiding a worse car price. I would not wire money until I've seen the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and the title situation in person or via a trusted PPI. That's the part that actually changes the decision. When does it actually happen? Going to compare one more dealer before I decide.

Compare apples to apples or you'll get spun. GAP, paint, and nitrogen are optional until you run the 2015 Volkswagen Golf numbers without them. Do that before you talk monthly again. Verbal 'we'll take care of it' is not a plan. Sleeping on the number either way.
