Buying vehicle questions

Hello everyone,
I am going to be ordering a 2013 the second price list comes out, so within about two-three months I am going to be picking one up.

Since i am ordering one someone told me that there are fees that i do not have to pay (I think it was something called a advertising fee or something.)
My question is what fees can i tell them to shove it, I will be using x-plan pricing, and if anyone has any other ideas or little tricks feel free to throw them in.

Thanks in advance
Romain

X-plan fees and pricing are pre-set and FDAF is still in the pricing.

If you're referring to the Doc Fee it's limited to $75 max with X-Plan IIRC

Thanks jimmy and Ltngdrvr

I thought that x-plan pricing was set but someone told me they add all sorts of fees but they I don't think know anything about the xplan. I think they were talking in general when buying as car.

When buying your car, your dealer uses certain techniques to make you feel beholden to them. The psychology of it is quite interesting. Aside from that, when a dealer gives you a test drive, or a small discount, most buyers will feel that buying at that dealership is "the right thing" to do. The bottom line, shop around and pit each dealer against another. More money in your pocket is the objective. When I go to buy a car, I'm not there to make friends I'm there to pay as little as possible for what I want .

That's the best advice I can give to any new car buyer. As far as X-plan is concerned, everything is a set price. No negotiating, no haggling. This includes fees.
