Related comment, the $100 is a Non-refundable Order Fee, not a Deposit. It doesn’t get credited towards the cost of the vehicle, it’s a completely separate fee.

Actually it is credited towards the cost of the vehicle. If you look at the price breakdown on your order page, you'll see the initial $100 payment credited.

Mine counted as a payment towards the vehicle.
Payments -$3,796.95
Payment 08/26/2020 -$100.00
but total paid that I paid is 50,877.80 after rebate.
The screenshot you posted above shows on 9/8, after everything, you paid $50,777.80, not $50,877.80 (after the $100 you paid on 8/15 was deducted.)
It messes with you. It may seem that way but when you add it up, like I have done. It’s separate. Sale Tax’s, title fee, and tire fee along with base of the vehicle is only 52,777.80 for me here in NY, minus $2000 for rebate. So total on mvpa paid is 52,877.80 implying the order fee is separate as the base costs for everything for the vehicle itself are $50,777.80 but total paid that I paid is 50,877.80 after rebate. So it does not minus anything from the vehicle. If that were the case, the total would be 50,777.80 for the vehicle itself after rebate but the $100 order fee takes $100 off but that is not the case.
Yep you're absolutely right. I see the $100 order fee below the documentation fee. Those bastards. lol

Yep - $100 is an advance payment and you'll get credited for the $100 you already paid when the final docs are prepared.Actually it is credited towards the cost of the vehicle. If you look at the price breakdown on your order page, you'll see the initial $100 payment credited.

It is confusing, and I understand now. If it was truly a deposit it wouldn't be listed as an itemized charge- it would just be subtracted from the total of what you owe on the car.
Instead, they take your $100 to hold the car, and then charge you the "order fee" which is then canceled out. So at the end of the day, you are not getting anything for that original $100 you paid.
Sneaky bastards indeed.
Sorry for sparking up an old thread but I see that you're an active member im in the same situation you were in and I see you ended up with one... I just put the $100 down today and with the sale of my 2015 Tahoe im going to be putting around 17-20k down. What ended up happening in your situation?Howdy, I'm in SoCal too and this is good info. I won't be trading anything in which is another reason I wanted to have a healthy down payment. If I put $100 down today, how long do you think it would take before I was asked for additional funds?
$100 is NOT a downpayment. It is simply an order fee. It's not going to reduce your final price.Sorry for sparking up an old thread but I see that you're an active member im in the same situation you were in and I see you ended up with one...
