I'm still confused - if you pay with cash in the US (more than $10,000) then the dealer has to report it on IRS Form 8300 with a SSN. That's somewhat understandable.   But why wouldn't a driver's license suffice for payment by personal check or by outside financing?   Giving out your SSN isn't to be done lightly, imo. link.   Maybe we should finish beating this poor horse over in Any Questions for a Car Dealer?.   Steve, Host Replies to this message: wibble (May 02, 2004 7:50 pm)

Replying to: steve_ (May 02, 2004 5:19 pm) I did work in car sales for a year or so a while back. The point is that with identity theft being so prevalent nowadays, car dealers are being VERY careful to ascertain the identity of anyone buying a car. You'd be amazed how many peoples driving licenses don't have their current address. I'd say about a third I dealt with didn't. Mainly because people seem to buy new cars after they've moved to a new house. Before everyone gets mad at the big, bad car dealer consider how comfortable you would be letting someone you have never met before drive off in a $40000 car based on a personal check? Consider this story (I know someone who was ripped off in this scam) to see the things that go on; http://www.presstelegram.com/Stories/0,1413,204~21474~2118174,00.- html

The point is that with identity theft being so prevalent nowadays I don't want some TT&L clerk at the dealer having easy access to my SSN .   Thanks for the link. Let's move on before the weekday crowd comes along looking for deals and finds this thread instead. I asked for more comments over in the Car Dealer discussion - steve_ "Any Questions for a Car Dealer?" May 2, 2004 11:18pm.   Steve, Host

is a federal requirement on all vehicle purchases regardless of how its paid for. most states also require it for tracking of sales/property taxes.
#411 of 1334 About Leasing by tls3 May 03, 2004 (8:53 am)
I am trying to lease a FX35. When I go to the Dealers, they always ask Lease or Finance. If I finance, they lower the price to $350.00 over invoice, which is a great deal. If I lease, they want to lease the car at MSRP price, which I am not willing to pay. They also asked, what lease monthly payment do you want to pay. Can someone please let me know which is the best way to get a lease for $300.00 over invoice. Thank you TLS3

#413 of 1334 Re: FX45 sat radio cost??? [norcal3 #404] by texasfx35 May 03, 2004 (3:24 pm)
Replying to: norcal3 (May 02, 2004 3:39 am) $750 for XM installation is a bit high. Southwest Infiniti in Houston charges $700 for this installation. There is a fair amount of work that needs to be done to get the antenna and the receiver installed plus running the wiring harness. If you want to know more about the installation details look at the Grubbs Infiniti site. They have an Infiniti performance parts shopping area. You can access the installation instructions in that area. Yes, $700 does seem high compared to $400 MSRP on a factory-installed unit, but after the car is assembled it cost to disassemble it.

Had my sat installed at Vincel Infiniti in Springfield, Mo. They charged $400. Don't understand why others are charging so much.
#416 of 1334 no ssn needed by mikey May 03, 2004 (11:46 pm)
i want to thank everybody for their input regarding the need for a social security number. tonight i picked up my fx35awd(diamond graphite w/graphite leather) with touring package and splash guards for $35,970. best of all, the dealership did not ask for my ssn number after i paid with a check from my credit union. i could not be happier with the salesman and no pressure sales tactics in regards to an extended warranty, window etching, maintenance,ect. once again, thanks for all the help   Mikey Replies to this message: wibble (May 03, 2004 11:52 pm) mikey (May 04, 2004 12:42 am) smokey100 (May 04, 2004 1:06 pm) lee_w (May 07, 2004 11:53 am)
