New Car Fees - MD

Anonymous
Pricing out several different cars and trying to figure out my out the door cost. Every dealer seems to lump all the fees into one with out a break-out. Looking at SUV's and hoping to transfer tags from current SUV to the new. Here is what I have figured so far:

Tax - 6%
Dealer Fee - $300 max
Title Fee - $100
Registration - $187 (does this apply since I am transferring tags)
Lien Fee - $20 (required because of financing?)
Tag Transfer - $10

Can anyone who recently purchased let me know if this looks correct?

Don't pay any "dealer fee." That's what dealers charge chumps who don't know any better.

According to MD law dealers are allowed to charge up to $300 maximum, no limit in VA or DC. It is a tax grab for MD as the 6% tax also applies to this fee.

Dealer fee is BS. Once you negotiate your final price, tell them that you aren't paying that $300. I do it all of the time. It's just extra profit for them.

You're missing the destination charge which will probably be at least $500.
