What dealership in SanAntonio did you buy from? Did the $34,200 drive out include TTL? I am looking at same vehicle in Houston area but haven't gotten the price down to your figure.
Considering year end is just around the corner, what would be a good deal for a 2009 Mini Cooper base model with absolutely NO add-ons/pkgs/upgrades. I priced this on the mini website it came to 19200 MSRP (Chili Red/White roof). Maybe it doesn't matter, but I'll be financing my self. Any tips on where I can get a deal will be much appreciated. Mini of Woodlands? Momentum Mini? Mini of SanAntonio? Thanks!
Now you're confusing me. Hehe... just kidding, I understand what you're saying. It's really very simple so let's not make it too difficult. Okay, let me show you what the Toyota dealer sees on his computer screen... 18186 VEHICLE INQUIRY REPORT DATE: 08/20/08 DCV920 TIME: 09:51 Model Number: 8352A SERIAL # :8X053419 Check Code: 0 Model Description: DCAB LTD 5.7L V8 Category ..........: G Year ............: 2008 Current Dealer ....: XXX-XXXXX Interior Color ..: LD13 LD13 Wholesale Dealer ..: XXXXX Exterior Color ..: 0040 WHITE Previous Dealer ...: XXXXX Body ............: DBL CAB 5.7L LTD Invoice Date ......: 02/08/08 Number of Cyl ...: 8 Ship Date .........: 02/07/08 Allocation Number: 012 Retail Date .......: Engine Number ...: 5206225 Date of First Use .: Vessel Number ...: 705 TRAC ..............: NO Vessel Name .....: TMMTX SANANTONIO Damage ............: NO DAMAGE PDI ...............: YES Fleet .............: NON-FLEET Port PDS Complete .: NO VIN .............: 5TFBV5814XXXXXXXX Ignition Key.....: N/A Factory Installed Accessories: FE AL Port Installed Accessories ..: C4 7J Retail Dealer Vehicle Base Model ....................: $ 38770.00 $ 33923.00 Total Accessories .....................: $ 1048.00 $ 813.50 MECHANICAL & PERFORMANCE GVWR = 7100 lbs.

Now, if the dealer installed additional options (rims, bedliners, exhaust, etc), that will alter the invoice. Stay away from aftermarket products on a lease, little if any can be residualized. Go for stock stock stock!!! Take this truck for example, the MSRP is $40,503, and the Invoice is $36,993. You would want to get as close to $36,993 as possible. So let's say they sell you the vehicle at Invoice, that's a dealer discount of $3510. So, in essense, they'd be selling you the vehicle/capping the cost at $36,993. Plus, if there is any factory lease cash/bonus cash available in your area, it will either be used to reduce your cap cost ($36,993) or be used as a down payment, or used to pay part or all of your inception fees. Remember, these are the monies you pay upfront which usually include: 1st mo payment + tax, dmv fees, doc fees, and possibly an acquisition fee. If the acquisition fee is not paid upfront, it will be "rolled" into your cap cost ($36,993 + $550 = $37,543). Understand?? Hope this helps?
Here's a computerized version of a Toyota factory invoice. At the bottom, you will see all the itemized "fees." If you live in the SET region, an admin fee of ~$750 would be added or in lieu of the TDA. But, for educational purposes, if you were to build this vehicle to it's exact specs via this site, the invoice should match everything except the TDA. Reitterating that the dest., holdback, wfr, and gasoline are already built into the invoice. 18186 VEHICLE INQUIRY REPORT DATE: 04/07/08 DCV920 TIME: 09:51 Model Number: 8352A SERIAL # :8X053419 Check Code: 0 Model Description: DCAB LTD 5.7L V8 Category ..........: G Year ............: 2008 Current Dealer ....: 110-04136 Interior Color ..: LD13 LD13 Wholesale Dealer ..: 04136 Exterior Color ..: 0040 WHITE Previous Dealer ...: 00110 Body ............: DBL CAB 5.7L LTD Invoice Date ......: 02/08/08 Number of Cyl ...: 8 Ship Date .........: 02/07/08 Allocation Number: 012 Retail Date .......: Engine Number ...: 5206225 Date of First Use .: Vessel Number ...: 705 TRAC ..............: NO Vessel Name .....: TMMTX SANANTONIO Damage ............: NO DAMAGE PDI ...............: YES Fleet .............: NON-FLEET Port PDS Complete .: NO VIN .............: 5TFBV58148XXXXXXX Ignition Key.....: N/A Factory Installed Accessories: FE AL Port Installed Accessories ..: C4 7J Retail Dealer Vehicle Base Model ....................: $ 38770.00 $ 33923.00 Total Accessories .....................: $ 1048.00 $ 813.50 MECHANICAL & PERFORMANCE GVWR = 7100 lbs.
