Sorry for my ignorance, i've just moved to the US. If i'm paying $10,000 of federal tax this year, would I receive (for example) the $1200 sales tax that I paid off that bill?
If this example isn't correct, can you provide an example? Using 6% tax on a car cost of $20k

No.. you'd get to deduct the $1200 from your income.
 
Assume you have a taxable income of $40K and pay $10K in federal tax, and you are in the 25% bracket..
 
The $1200 comes off the $40K, making your taxable income $38,800, and lowering your tax to $9700..
 
$300 savings..

Ok kind Altima Coupe owners out there i have narrowed my car search to the coupe. I drove yesterday and liked better than camry and honda.
In process of getting 4 quotes from (friendly) dealers in my area, haha
 
SO does anyone have a strategy that works on good negotiating techniques? Is there a percentage off the sticker i can try to shoot for? I read somewhere depending on car you can get 7-22 percent off sticker,
 
thanks for help

Unfortunately, I have learned that one of the best times to buy a new car is right before the end of a quarter. I think some amazing deals here were made because it was June 30. Now, the dealer loses some incentives for sales in the quarter and may be slightly less anxious to deal. I am betting the time just before the Sept. 30 date would be a GREAT time for deals on 2009s.

wow just my luck, just discovered the 1500$ cash back incentive no longer valid on the coupe, expired yesterday, possible deal breaker! Maybe this is a sign.........

Fitzmall Chambersburg, PA.
 
$1500 factory to consumer rebate
$1500 hidden factory to dealer rebate
 
As sales explained to me:
Dealer lost additional holdback/more to meet quota for additional sales bonus.
 
14 other local (DC) dealers wouldn't touch the price.
They drove it down to me, and it was nice and painless.

Did the salesman mention how long the hidden factory rebate was going for?

Ha.. When I took over my mother's finances a couple of years ago, I found she hadn't filed since 2004.. and, couldn't find any records..
 
Only took a year to sort all that out... Now, just don't get me started on the Social Security Administration..
