Then they'll probably just take the car back if the guy try to "bully" them in to accepting his terms. It will probably go something like this, 'The price is the price, we haven't changed that. While we figured we could get you approved at 3.9% we couldn't. Honda appoved you at 4.9%, here is the approval. (customer)'I'm sorry to hear that. How about this, keep the payment the same with the new rate or take the car back' 'I'm sorry but the payment went up with the new approval and I cant make the payment the same' 'Well then you can have your car back!' 'I understand. I'm sorry you feel that way. We will take the car back. We do however, have to charge you for excess wear - $300.00 should cover it.' 'No way! I'm not paying that, you changed the terms we agreed to.' 'No sir, we din't change anything. The car is still $22222.00 and you can still buy it at that price. But, bottom line is the lender didn't approve the contact as written. Now about that $300.00, do you want us to deduct that from your deposit?' I will bet the conversation goes pretty close to that. Sad but true

If you are shopping for yourself (like the the poster was) the tax rate is consistant so an OTD would matter... We are using a Worldwide forum so we have various opinions however I guarantee that we ALL pay an OTD price. |

A dealer can in fact have a car with a lower invoice price however due to junk fees a higher OTD price than other dealers.

Replying to: mplshondadlr (Nov 26, 2008 2:37 pm) Good point. If my memory is correct, I believe there is a clause in the fine print of most contracts that would allow the dealer to do that. That's why folks always recommend to have your own financing lined up BEFORE going to buy the car. |

Replying to: mplshondadlr (Nov 26, 2008 2:37 pm) $0.15/mi. is $45 Good luck collecting... This is the dealer's risk in doing spot deliveries... Can they charge for use of the car? Yes... Can they collect? Doubtful. When the deal changes, it's best to walk away.. Once that number starts moving up, you are asking for it. regards, kyfdx |

Replying to: vaterp (Nov 19, 2008 2:06 pm) Got 500 below invoice on 2009 4dr EXL V6 with/nav Clean deal no trade ... beware of high doc fees ... max 299 (this is pure profit for them as well) Start lower and close for 500 less if possible. They are still making 4-500 on the deal. |
