Buying Specifics-finances?

Question:
okay. So I'm a first time buyer and I want to make sure I go about getting a car in the right way. I'm looking for an SUV but not the huge ones. I kinda like the Honda Element/Passport. I think I may stick with Honda and just find an SUV they have that I like. Anyways...what I wanted to know is more related to financing the car. I will have a parent co-sign with me because I'm still kinda young and I don't know how the financing part will work out. I want to make a down payment that's at least half of what the car cost so it won't take as long to pay off. My limit is $11,000 because I think I can pay that at the most. So are there any added costs to the car after you buy it, like taxes or dealership fees. I want to know the details so I will know how much to finance so that everything is covered. thanx!

Answers:

Negotiating?

Generally speaking there are no ways around certain fees. When you find a car you like you will ultimately have to figure in the cost for your state sales tax (ie 6% for PA) and there are also costs incurred for the issuing of a new license plate, etc... so your vehicle is legally registered (about $155.87 in PA). So if your ceiling is $11,000 then make sure you plan accordingly to pay the various fees involved in the purchase. Good Luck.
