Okay, I\'m trying to figure out how much the 3 will cost me after every single charge. I know from when I bought my 6 that there was the gas tax @ $75, Air tax @ $100, freight/pdi @ $925, and an administration fee of $175. Is the admin fee still that amount, cause when I saw the cost of the car from carcostcanada it states that the admin fee is $300.

If anyone has an invoice for a 3 close by and is willing to post up all the associated charges I would greatly appreciate it.

admin fee varied from $90 to $300 when i was getting quotes for my car..

for me i paid:

F&PDI: $925
A/C TAX: $100
Gas TAX: $75
Documentation Fee: $100
Special paint :sarc : $105

also don\'t forget licencing fee ($20bux or so for plates + whatever portion of $74 per year of registration fee) unless you bring your old plates..

I got my Documentation Fee waived.

There shouldn\'t any documentation fees, its just a cash grab.

for me it didn\'t matter how THEY broke down their cost.. i said i wanted the car for $XXXXX OTR and if they charge me $1000 or $10 Admin/Documentation fee it\'s up to them :)

Hi everyone!

When I bought my 3 I did\'nt pay any administration or documentation fees! That\'s more or less $300 savings right there.

I have a 2005 Sedan, white, GT, Leather, auto, 2-year extended warranty (comprehensive), rust proof and wheel locks.... paid $30,000 otr.
