I'd love to get 30k plus miles on a card but they would only let me do $2500 max. Same thing happend with my last new car. I paid the rest in full by personal check.

They already have a $2,500 deposit and I'm putting another $3,500 down when I pick it up, so I should be able to just give them momo's a check, no?

Why don't you just go to the bank, wait in line for 5 minutes, pay with a cashiers check and not worry about it? You hate talking to people huh? tsk tsk...so sad.

I'd buy a car completely over the internet if I could.

ADD TO CART >> DELIVER TO MY DRIVEWAY >> PAYPAL MY $$.

Talking to people isn't all it's cracked up to be. LOL.

I paid for my car with a personal check (actually 2 of them). I supposse it depends on the dealer.

That's because they get hit up for a small percentage on the amount charged.
Small percentage on a few thousand adds up to a lot of money.

I picked it up about 2 hours ago!!! My friggin head is spinning from trying to learn the nav, voice recognition & radio -- not to mention I'm now drving an automatic (my A4 was a stick).

I absolutely love this car.
