I got a refund check from the dealer (Penske Honda) for sales tax that was applied to the purchase price BEFORE subtracting the $4500 CFC voucher trade in - about $315 (7% sales tax, Indiana). It is evident that in Indiana, the sales tax is calculated AFTER the $4500 CFC trade in is applied to the price of the car only, but not the doc fees. Thus, my revised OTD for Fit Sport Auto purchased on 7/20 is: $13,395.73 after CFC $4,500 trade-in: 16,154 - price 710 - destination -4,500 - CFC trade in 865.48 - tax 16.25 - Tire Fee 140.00 - Doc Fee 10.00 - Filing Fee (?)

This is an orange Honda Fit Sport AT: Price: 16740 (approx., can't remember the exact price) Doc fee: 299 (insane CT doc fee) Sales tax: 6% OTD: 18256.78 Other dealers offered me 17400+ for the exact same car, only Schaller Honda of New Britain gave me the lowest offer. But that sort of bothers me... |

Hi, I have a clunker, and I want to get some advices here on whether I should wait until the last minute before disclosing I have a clunker qualify for the c4c program? Or I should tell them I have one up front? Thanks |

Replying to: yfactor (Aug 21, 2009 7:58 am) yep, it was a Honda Fit/Sport AT in Black. I got it at Fletcher Jones Imports on Clark, the sales staff wasn't the greatest but I got it for a good price so who cares really. My sales rep was named Matt and I initially reached him through email and got the offer/price worked out before I even walked through the door. Good luck. |

Replying to: psgame2k (Aug 10, 2009 11:11 am) Sales tax in CA depends on where you live (not where you buy the car -- so don't drive 20 miles to a dealer in another county if you think you'll save 1% on sales tax). For me in SF it was $1657. Doc fees is a vague term. I paid $288 for plates and registration (no way to negotiate that, as it goes to the state), and about $90 to the dealer for processing. It probably takes them all of 5 minutes to do the paperwork, but I can live with that. I may have missed some minor items but bottom lines: Price (incl dest charge): $16,650 Out the door price: $18,610 After CFC voucher: $14,110 The clunker was a 2000 Ranger pickup (18 mpg according to the EPA, but I never got that) with non-functional AC and non-functional cruise control, and it smelled like dog and had chewed up seats (Bad puppy!) and a "check engine" light that had been on for about 4 months.

My kid got this and she just loves it. I like the seat height as I can slide right over...no dropping down into the seat, and with my spinal problems, this is a gotta have feature. She tried the Fit but was very unimpressed with what one got for the $ as compared to the Versa...bigger rebate and a bigger interior. The Sandman
