Add on Costs by rmorin2

My dealer wants to add several things to the invoice:
 
Advertising fee
Floor interest
Port charge
 
Are these legit? They come to around $500. I am suspicious that this is just more profit. Please clarify.

The port charge sounds an awful lot like my "import fee" which was $200. Advertising and floor interest? Never heard of them.

Did you make an offer of $XXX over invoice?
 
That is a good way to determine what price you want to pay, but not a great way to make an offer.. As you can see, invoice can be whatever the dealer wants it to be...
 
Always make offers in dollar amounts...

You should not have to pay over Invoice for this vehicle. Also, the Import Prep and Full Tank of Gas charge is bogus. If they're going to give you such grief I would skip them entirely, and go to another dealer. After telling them the poor service you've experienced they would be more than motivated to give you better servive and a better price.
 
Remember folks! When purchasing, it's price of car + plus destination (sometimes already worked in) + Tax + Plates. That's it. Stay away from other fees, and look over your contracts for them before you sign!!!

Hey cocoseng, was the price of $26,741 out the door? or was that before taxes? What part of the country do you live in?
 
I live in Los Angeles and test drove the EXACT same car you describe in your post
  
2008 Volkswagen GTI (United Gray)
4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6AM)
Autobahn Package
except that it has 17" denver alloy wheels
 
They gave me an MSRP of $27,965 and out the door price of $30,761.
Anyone else think that's too high?
I'm looking for any input. Thanks.
