What do you mean by "status"? You can decode the VIN here.
Not all VIN decoding sites can decode newer VINs.

Maybe can someone decode my vin? Would like to know what options are equipped, different decoders gives different info, so I dont trust these on web pages any more.

Hi. Do you know how many alternators that a Mercedes S400 Hybrid have. I know you said you are finance. I was hoping that can let me know. Thank you so much.

With interest rates at historic lows, regardless of whether the dealer padded the loan or not, I would never ever pay 5.32% on a loan.

Could you not do better at your local credit union or a bank? IMO, 5.32% is obscenely high.

Not bad if you have a history of bankruptcy and repossessions. Other than that, you got screwed. Go refinance ASAP at a local credit union.

Depending on the State, there are consumer protection laws that permit rescinding of contracts within 72 hours.

If I were you, as I posted I would never pay over 5%, try to cancel this deal. It is horrendous!

Today's auto loan rates for a new car are between 2% and 3% for those with good credit. For example Bank of America is offering 2,59% APR.

my bank is offering 2.49% for 72 months. 5.32% indicates bad credit or a very happy finance officer.

Just purchased a 2021 GLE450

Can you tell me what the mandatory fees a dealer can legally charge? I know I will have to pay tax, license, and doc fees. Can they legally add fees like serial number etching and advertising fees to my purchase?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Brian

they can legally add a water bill surcharge, customer paying it is another story.

As stated, they can charge whatever they want. In Florida, a lot of dealers charge an extra $900 or so. They just have to disclose that that includes profit. Yes, you agree on a price. Then they tack on profit.

Which is why I always tell the salesperson, give me your best price including any fees. If they try to tack on anything above the agreed on price, I walk.

Yup, I don't dicker. I tell them to give me their best price up front or I walk. I've walked a few times. My MB dealer for over 40 years complies. The other dealers (BMW, VW and Hyundai) not so much.

Hello,
I just saw your offer and really need some help with MBFS. We have been trying to get a letter from MBFS on their letterhead stating the payoff for my MB e550 and have spoken with 4 different people and have received a fabricated story from every one. We need thew letter because my buyer is asking for it prior to closing the deal. Can you recommend a manager that we can call to get a valid answer, right now it looks like we have lost the sale. Will appreciate any thing you can do. Thanks Randy

Can you not get it online? Maybe different where you are but in UK it is all done online and a headed settlement quote is presented instantly and then emailed.
