1) They have serial numbers on them. Whether or not that means two people can't use the same one I don't know.
 
2) They expire 30Sept2004

Doc Fee by richz

It seems that every dealer I go to is charging me a $160 DOC fee. Is this supposed to be included in the pre-tax price of the car and taxed? Tehy are adding it to the price of the car so I am being taxed on it. Also, what exactly is the DOC fee and is $160 too high?

The "doc fee" is supposed to be for the running around they do to get the plates and misc. paperwork that they do. It is a taxable service.
Good Luck! If you were buying a Chevy Cavalier and threatened to walk out of the showroom they would lower the price of the car but still put the doc fee in the contract.

Which dealer to buy from by richz
Sep 21, 2004 (7:38 pm)

So I am about to buy an 05 A4 1.8T and am pondering which dealer to buy it from. I can probably get the exact same deal from both dealers. The one dealer is 3 miles from my house whereas the other is 100 miles away where another member of my family bought his A6.
 
I want to buy from the dealer 100 miles away because I can probably get $100 less and prefer to give him the business, but will it make a difference if I go to service my car at my local Audi dealer? My main concern is whether or not I will get the loaner cars from teh dealer when I drop my car off for service.

I'd buy next door... Unless they have done something so egregious, that you just can't stand to do business with them... For $100, I'd like to have the leverage of being their new car customer, when it comes to service..

I would have to agree. I was in a similar position.
 
Probelm is the local dealer already knows you might buy from some one else and I had the sales manager make it quite clear to me that in such event I would not get "priority service".
 
Did that bother me, not really, but $100.00 on a $35K car is not really all that much. $500 to $1,000.00 however is an entirely different matter.

My '05 A4 1.8T by richz

I just sealed the deal on an '05 A4 1.8T with the following:
 
Silver w/ ebony interior
Premium Package
Cold Weather Package
Lighting Package
Bose Audio w/ XM
17" alloy wheels
 
Price:
$34,200 sale price
+$160 doc fee
+$2061.60 sales tax
+$15 title
+$8 plate transfer
----------------------
$36,444.60 out the door price.
 
I think I did pretty well considering the fact that my dealer had to get this car from out of town. Makes it even better w/ the $500 race to audi days certificate .
 
What do you guys think?

$700.00 is a big difference. Yes for that money I would've done the same thing.
 
But with me it literally was $135.00 difference and I was not as close as you are to the other dealer so I stayed local.
 
Good work.
