Civic EX coupe, manual, NO SSRS
 
$15650.00
   651.00 spoiler
   399.00 doc,
   189.00 vtr
    28.25 state title fee
  1268.79 7.5% state tax
------------------------------
$18186.04 out the door
 
I cannot get a lower quote in Las Vegas. I have a similar quote from 3 dealerships. (all within $150)
It really irks me to pay that much in Doc Fees and window etching. I cannot get any of the dealerships to work with me at all.
I've even quoted the $400 marketing support incentive and didn't even get a blink from the dealer.
 Anyone have any suggestions??

I've been quote for the LX, auto
 
1. $14761
      885.66 sale tax
       45 Doc. Fees
    Title&Reg as DMV charges
 
2. $14577
      874.62 Sale tax
       44.50 Plates
       10.50 Tire&temp fees
      118.00 Doc. Fees
These quote were over the net which I think is very good. Do you think I should bargain some more? Or should I wait till after Sept.15? If I wait will the special finance be the same?? But one thing I really want to have on the LX is ABS which is not an option for it, why not?

Sale taxes before or after trade in by thong24k

One of the dealer told me that it'll be better if I'm going to trade in my car rather than sell it myself if the difference not more than thousand because that way I will get the tax break for that. He explains to me that the amount of trade in will be subtract from sale price then taxes that amount instead of the whole sale. To be better explain, I give you sample. Let said the sale price is 14000-9500(trade-in) = 4500*.06(NJ tax) = 270 then the total that you need to pay will be 4500+270= 4770 plus other fees. or if you decide to sale it yourself and get for $10000 for cash down payment it would be 14000*.06= 840. 14000+840-10000=4840
   My question is: Is that true how the dealer do it? Other dealer didn't explain to me that. What is that called?

It depends on the state. I know that in NY and CT you get taxed on the difference of the selling price and the trade in. If NJ has simlar tax law, then your dealer is correct.
If the dealer is offering you $9500 on the trade in and you could sell it for $10,000. I think the $500 difference is worth the fact that you don't have to advertize the car ($65-70) answer the phone and have strangers come over and kick your tires. Although, it is possible that if the dealer is giving you $9500 on trade-in, the car would probably sell for $11,000-$11,500.

You can start by calling DMV.
