How much do you pay a month?
I pay $400 a month just because it is easier. I try to pay more when I can. My payments are really $378 for 60 months.
I put $2K down which covered what I still owed on my trade so I pretty much broke even there.

I talked them out of tax and the delivery / documentation fees.

In my case, my credit was so bad that they wanted 4K down as trade in and 2K cash. I paid the 2K cash but my trade in was a 91 grand prix with a blown head gasket, radiator leaks, bare tires,120,000 miles, etc. I bought it for $800 and they still gave me 4K as a trade in but tacked the balance of what it was actually worth on to the sticker price. Just an example of how they do things
^Exactly...but the other guy said no money down, so i assumed no trade in.
My car was worth about $1000 private sale and they gave me $1800 (a check that is still on the way)
But they can't lower the price of the car because of pure pricing. I have a friend that works at scion and he said all he could do was to drop the dealer fee and give me $400 cash incentive on college grad.

$181/month for 48 months 5.25% thru AAA
but I am going to pay about $250/month and pay it off in 3 yrs
put 11k down, selling my 01 golf tdi privately for 10,400. if you can help it never ever trade in your car.
also, if you are financing for longer than 5 yrs you are probably buying more car than you can afford.
i used to be a finance manager for vw

But insurance is raping me.And atleast since yours is paid for, you don't technically "NEED" full coverage
first time around was 345/mo w/ 500 down w/ srs.
, went back a year later, got a new one. Now I'm 375/mo w/ 1400 down w/ ground effects lip kit.
I had a negative on my credit from tfs that claimed I was a slow pay/late payment one month, to which I'm arguing.
I took the car at the new, higher rates bc I had totalled the last one. Needless to say, the plan is I'll be refinancing next year after I resolve this discrepancy and clearing up a coupleof my past debts.
