I would have to go to the Secretary of State and register the vehice and get my plates established with a Michigan tag but that the title was optional. I took his word for it afterall he was giving me all the details of the transaction as we went along. At the time of the purchase I thought my transaction included tax costs for Ohio, it wasn't until I returned home and tried to register the vehicle with the SOS that I had to pay the Michigan tax and register the van including the title which came to 1500.00. Ofcourse I didn't have the funds to pay the SOS that day. I told the representative that I made the transaction in Ohio and thought taxes were paid thru the transaction of the loan. She informed me that I wasn't charged a Ohio tax because on the title it had NR typed in for non resident. I didn't know that nor would I have guessed that NR stood for non resident. I had to leave and tell her that I would have to come up with the funds. I called the dealership and asked why I wasn't made aware of the NR and the whole tax thing. Why I even bothered I don't know because they said they told me at the time of... I'm sorry but they didn't and my son is my witness he was with me throughout the whole ordeal. In April I had to have eye surgery something I didn't expect and I had out of pocket costs plus I lost a whole week of work. I contacted CPS and told them in advance that I had surgery and I would be late in making the April payment. The representative sounded fair and understanding and said ok, however shortly after that the phone calls started on my phone, and I overly explained the circumstances and who I spoke with, at work - early morning and I work for a religious community that should not have to be subject to rude and invasive telephone calls. They would not stop until I sent in some form of payment which was my first pay check after I returned to work. That left me with nothing for the remainder of the week and as soon as they received the payment they began to call about the next. Because of the time frame when I was off the next payment for May came due shortly after that. I had to pay my rent which is 900 and again I explained the circumstances I was under and would fulfill my obligation to them asap. I was only one payment behind and you would have thought I was six payments behind and choosing not to do anything about it. The car payment itself is 600.00 - so between my rent due the first and the car payment due the 12th - I need at least 1500 on hand to cover both costs. My budget was okay until I was hit with Michigan taxes and surgery. As it stands the car still is not registered in Michigan because the 1,000.00 dollars I was saving to accomplish that was used to make a payment in a half on the van or else they were going to send a driver to pick it up. I have never been in such demanding circumstances as I am now with this finance company. Before this purchase I never heard of CPS and I did go to their website and look it over after I knew they would be doing the financing but it wasn't until today that I discoverd all the input and reports that your website has. I feel like it was meant to be because I was on the phone with CPS giving them the tracking numbers of the money gram I sent them for payment that I started clicking away and soon before my eyes I read all the reviews. Before I go any further I want to say that I took what measures I thought I could within my reach to ask the Michigan SOS treasury in Lansing if I could set up a payment for the taxes and was turned down. I emailed Terry Lind the head of the SOS and she also turned me down for installment payments. I went back to the SOS to see if they would accept some type of payment plan and again no was the answer. I am really stuck now and feel like I was taken for the biggest ride ever by both the dealership and CPS. I don't know what I can do if anything and I would be very grateful if anyone could help or suggest something that will address these issues - what happened to me probably happens to someone everyday somewhere and it is unfortunate.

I've got a Honda Pilot that has 1 more payment and the buyout value is $19,000 (Canadian - I'm in ontario)... i'm 10K below the KM limit... so comparable cars are selling for $24,000... we are not getting another Honda - so i can't negotiate with Honda dealership.. how can i get that $5000 out? If i buy it and sell it there is $3000 of taxes to pay which increases the risk... thoughts?

Okay, I'm looking to purchase a car, usually I go through people, but I happened to find a great deal at a dealership. I don't want to have any payments, so I'm doing it cash and the car is $3250.00, it's in good condition. A camaro. Obviously dealers are going to make a profit with whatever price they put out there, so what do you think I should talk him down to?
Thanks!

I'm interested in buying a used car from a dealership. I was able to haggle the listed price down to $16K, but the dealer won't go farther down. The out-the-door cost after tax and other fees is about $17,700. The price on KBB is $16K for good condition, $17K for excellent (private party). If the price on kbb is supposed to be representative of the listed price, I should be getting an ok deal. But not so much if it's the out-the-door price. So which is it? The car is in like-new condition, btw, according to my mechanic, but there is no warranty included/offered from the dealer, and no other extras offered. I don't know if this matters, but this is a rather rare car to find (not made anymore).

My boyfriend previously owned a 96 ford taurus that he sold to a friend of mine. Due to financial problems, when the power steering pump went out (this is believed to be the only problem with the vehicle) , she wasn't able to repair it. I have offered to buy the vehicle from her for $700 as my boyfriend says he can fix it. I don't know how many miles are on the vehicle, but it looks in good shape. My dad thinks I'm making a mistake. But I have little money and can't afford a car payment. I've never bought a vehicle before so I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing or not. Any thoughts?

We are looking at buying a car and upon getting a VCheck the colour on the paperwork is different to that on the car.

It is a grey car and the papers say green.

I know it could be a typo, but what are the other things it could be?

I'd prefer to go to the seller knowing what I'm talking about rather than sounding naive and maybe getting caught with something which isn't aboveboard.
