Dave nice move, new van and new wife? LOL jk. see post 16303...for what reason, I'm not sure because I don't think I mentioned trade. Follow that but dont talk trade. go to kbb dot com and edmunds dot com and get the value on your car. The former usually quotes lower, which is usually more indicative of what you'll get for trade. Make sure to be honest with yourself when selecting condition of trade. Get that price from both and print it out. Go to Carmax and get a quote from them to purchase it. Their quote is good for 7 days, so don't do this until your ready to do something in 7 days-in the event you need to fall back on them. Tell carmax you need to think about it. When your ready to buy. Take your written "purchase price" deal (as noted in #16303) and show up to test drive/buy the car. At that time, your SOB brother inlaw was supposed to buy your car, but bailed. (good enough as any story) Therefore you have a trade. While you drive your car, they'll kick the tires on the trade-in. Don't sign, talk inking deal, anything until they give you price for trade. The price they give 99 out of a 100 will be insultingly low. Say kbb says its worth 18k on trade, they'll tell you 14K or less. Pull out KBB sheet point to the trade value of your car. Tell them you need that period or your walking. They'll waste another 20 min of your time and then give you another price. Probably not what you need. Stand up, take steps and emphasize your bottom line. Get reaction. They may take another look, they may say that's it..that;s all they can do. If they are BETTER than carmax..forget that info in your back pocket. If carmax is better, pull it out and tell them that they'll give you "x"...you need "x" price to be done. Hopefully they will get there. If they come close. ($500), take their deal, since the trade value of your car gets deducted from the purchase price, so you pay less tax. Ie, you buy car for 20K, trade in 10K, you pay tax on 10K. If tax is 7% you saved $700 on the tax with the trade. Hopefully they give you KBB trade value or carmax price. If so, I'd do the deal and be done. NOW--IF Your trade is only worth $1800, going to this extreme is proably pointless. dump the car outright to someone or try to get $1500 and be done. Really depends on value of trade, if you want to bother selling outright, etc. Just be careful not to totally get bent over on the trade.

And apparently pretty easy to install. Can plug in cig lighter or wire under dash. If you are leasing the plug in sounds good. (Or can you make changes to the car?)
Good luck.
thanks in advance
Thanks.
Don't forget to consider doc fees as part of the price.
Oddly enough, the people who gave me toatlly agressive pricing as a dude are not even responding to my requests for quote as a chick. Go figure.
Hoping they respond but otherwise, should I try to take the quote in and do the deal on the floor? The showroom floor I mean...in person...uh, you know what I mean.
I was so getting used to the idea of everything being worked out before. AGH.
Hey Now! LOL Now thats what I call "closing the deal". Whatever works, though I'd strongly advise against getting the free undercoating special on the business managers desk. LOL JK.
Bottom line is that you got written quotes from them. Bring a paper copy of all your email correspondence (quotation) with you and it shouldn't matter if your Cindy Brady, Shrek, Chebacca or Kunta Kente' as long as you have the quote and reasonable credit. For good measure, bring the initial auto respond email that you get, acknowledging your request and promise to follow up. (from your fem persona) and feel free to let the GM know that they never even responded to you, so you took the liberty to pretend your David Hasselhoff so that you could get a quote.
Bottom line, don't be the least bit bashful about expecting to buy the car for that price. If they pull any BS let the GM know that you'd be happy to call the BBB and your local paper, letting them know that his dealership didn't want to sell you a car at a quoted price because your female. This is seriously extreme, this whole thing should be a non-event. Bring the quote and buy the car. Again, this is a NON ISSUE. If they pull anything they'd be insane. If their emailing a quote, it shoudln't matter in the least whether your male, female, white, african american, mexican, albino or 6 5" with ink all over. Tell them you noted a males name because you weren't getting a response from your initial request.
Make sure they have your color and that destinations included and that there are no dealer extras on this van. Get this in writing before you go.

I have been given a price of $25,921 + $635 Destination, tax, MV fees & $199 documentation fee. I understand what taxes are, but what is the difference between MV fees and documentation fees?
Most importantly does this price seem reasonable?
Good luck.
Let me know how things turn out for you.
I am interested in buying a 2007 EX-L without nav or DVD.

so 25003 + destination is a good price
