Question I signed a paper with the break down of the costs and purchase price of a new car. I left a credit card number as a down payment. No credit slip was signed and no copy of the paper was given to me. I did not take delivery of the car. I have since learned that I was charged $600 over edmunds.com "true market value pricing" amount. Can I still negotiate the price or walk away? Also, how do I find out if the fees such as "tire fee", "waste recovery fee" and transfer title are correct or legitimate? And on what amount are they supposed to charge tax on: the full MSRP plus fees?
Also, the price of the car before fees and after rebate was 15887 for a Suzuki SX4 Sport Touring manual. Is it a fair price?
Thanks for your help.
