Replying to: jdunnisher (May 09, 2008 10:07 am) Why? Most states cap how much a dealer documentation fee is. For example, here in Minnesota the state caps dealer at $50.00. Next, sales tax is going to be the same everywhere in the state with the exception of additional county taxes. Finally, plate and transfer fee's collected by the dealer on behalf of the state are the same, except for again if a county has a wheelage tax or some other small fee. Aside from sales tax, most states will collect county fee's for the county you live in, not the county you purchased the car in. To make an apple to apple compairson, make sure the internet price includes the destination charge - everything else you can figure out on your own with five min's of research. Just my .02

That is a pretty substantial amount. I just think if you can get all the figures before making a decision, why not do it? |

Just got a quote through email. For The 2008 Honda Accord ; EX-L V6 4dr sedan MSRP: $ 28060 + $635 Destination Your Price: $ 25216 + $635 Destination, tax, MV fees & $199 documentation fee. This is in NJ. Do those numbers sound good. I might try to shop this with another dealership but so far, those are the best numbers I have been quoted. |

Trying to find out what people are paying for 08 accord exl 4 dr. 4 cyl /no nav. in NJ. Wasn't able to make a deal in April, but had originally gotten prices of: 22,610 base + 635 (dest.) + 200 (doc.) + 7.50 (tire tax) + Tax + DMV. Made the mistake of going to my "regular" dealer who said they'd match the price quotes I got. When I got there, after a lot of "shmoozing" and agreeing to the price, the Mgr. came out and nixed the deal. Needless to say, I walked out. But since it was end of month and the internet quotes were only for that day (4/30)...... I missed out. What do you think about the prices I was quoted? Was wondering what deals are available in May, now that the Accord seems to have sold so well in April. |
