I was just quoted an out the door price of 16,950.23 for a 2005 corolla le with the jbl audio package and abs brakes. The price is 15800 + 489 (doc fee) + tax and tag. Is this good? It is bellow tmv value for my area, bu still above carsdirect.com price.

A $489 doc fee!? That seems WAY excessive! The highest I saw in my area (Boston), and I thought it was too high, was $198. What are you "getting" for almost $500?

doc fees of $498 by vois

I highly suspect that had you shopped at that dealership on Monday (instead of Tuesday, which was the first date of the $500 rebate) your 'documentation fees' would have been less than $100. In all the dealerships I priced for both the Corolla and the Civic, I never saw higher than $99. AIG reports that the average actual cost to a dealer to process your state paperwork and financing is about $47. You did good on the purchase price (15800) of a 2005 Corolla LE with the extra value package and ABS brakes. But I would tell them to stuff the docs fee or go to another dealer who will give you the same purchase price for less than $100 in documentation fees.

I have been looking at both Civics and Corollas (civic have better prices and financing, but corollas have the ABS option), and in all 9 dealerships I contacted (6 honda, 3 toyota) I have not found a doc fee of less than 400... I have gotten dealerships to lower the price and include the destination fee in the prices, but so far no deal on the doc fees. If they keep reducing the prices, then I won't mind the fee...
Maybe it has something to do with being in Atlanta and the county that I live in...
