    I tried posting this in purchase price threat but no responses. I have a question for those who purchased in Connecticut. Did the dealer add a dealer fee of about $398? Had one all picked out for MSRP in NY but had to go to Ct. to get acceptable color. Dealer there claims ALL Ct. dealers add an almost $400 dealer fee on top of the msrp. NY dealer only added $45 to register car. Ct. dealer does not even have to do that since I need to register it myself in NY. I don't have much choice since I need to get in on the CFC program and they have a color I prefer. I just want to know if he is giving me a line so I can comment on it when I pick up my car this week.

    Not sure if its required, but all the dealerships I checked with in CT (pretty much every one) charged something in the 100's

    All the dealers in CT have a fee, but not $400. I believe the lowest I saw was $250 from Toyota of Middletown. I ended up buying out of state because none of the CT dealers would budge on MSRP or the fee.

    It's dealer depended, you might be able to get them to lower it. I got mine to do it for $99, but they charge $399
