revised 18Aug---3 Sept
I’m in Austin too so how does the payment work ? I’m doing a loan and my trade in. It says I owe negative because of my trade in.
I am also in Austin - For me, I have to pay BEFORE I go to pick up, then I also have to go to the tax office (Travis, Williamson whatever) and pay the taxes. Its like buying a car from out of state. They take into account the sales tax etc. Not totally sure how the negative $$ works. Maybe they pay you?
Huh this sounds confusing lol. I assume tax will still be the same I just take my papers there and pay. But what do you mean pay before? I thought you always had to put the initial down payment down before you picked up?
I originally completed it 5/24. I added trade-in mid-June but my SA said I didn't lose my place in line and my EDD on the site did not change before/after. When I updated the odometer last week my EDD disappeared and when it was reapproved, my EDD went from July 29-August 15 to September 16-30.
They might mean pay the down payment before the car enters Texas versus at the time of delivery. In most states, the down payment is made at time of delivery.
Oh got it. That makes sense. Well I guess with my trade in I shouldn’t have to do anything then? We will see
If you are in a negative, they should be cutting you a check for the difference or you can apply it towards the price of the car and finance less. Reach out to [email protected] and tell them your RN in the subject header. Include your vin in the message and ask them for assistance. They are very helpful.
In the occurrence you were paying in full in cash. You would have to send full payment before receiving the car. What jama999 May be referring is most people outside of Texas and Michigan (for example) are able to wait until seeing the car before submitting final payment.
You do have to do a separate service appointment for it at a SC - they don't do it via Mobile Service unfortunately. Had it added to my M3 last year and I had to drive 100 miles to my closest SC to get it added. Thankfully it was quick once I got there...took them only about an hour or so.
I ordered the same day as you and my EDD pushed out yet another day again today as it has done every day for the last week and a half or so. Now EDD is Aug 4-Aug 21. Ugh...ughI shouldn't have done the math was curious how many weeks its been since we ordered. This Saturday will be the end of week 11... My EDD isn't until week 20-21... I'm only half way, until they jump the date again...
Sadly, I think this just proves how little the SA's and DC's know until you actually get a VIN assigned. Why would EDD's jump from July to October and back to July? Why would they jump to October once a VIN is assigned. None of that makes sense.
