We reserve the right to end this listing at anytime should the vehicle no longer be available for sale. The following terms of sale apply to all of our listings.
Lexus San Diego Terms of Vehicle Sales
We at Lexus San Diego will strive to make your purchasing experience a hassle free and pleasant one. However, as a licensed dealer in the state of California and as part of a publicly traded fortune 500 Company, there are (of course) certain laws and internal company policies that we are required to comply with, and must require compliance from our customers.
* PAYMENT and PAPERWORK
All vehicles must be paid for in full before the vehicle will be released. Valid forms of payment are cash (green cash in person), personal checks, bank cashier's checks, bank wired funds, or arranged financing. We do not accept E-Loan / ROAD Loans, Pay pal, and some Capital One Checks, nor do we accept any Escrow type transactions.
If payment is made by personal check, the title cannot be released until we receive proof the funds have cleared.
All out of state transactions must be paid for by bank cashier's check, wired funds, or arranged financing. This is to assure prompt processing of title work.
Buyers must pay our documentation fee of $55. This charge represents cost to the dealer for items such as inspection and preparing documents related to the sale of the automobile.
All paperwork must be completed before the vehicle will be released. This includes contracts, DMV paperwork, and miscellaneous dealership forms.
The state of California requires us to collect a legible copy of a driver's license for each person on the sales contract and a copy of a valid insurance card.
Because of the new Federal Trade Commission Red Flag laws concerning identity theft (16 CFR * 681.2(d)), and existing Homeland Security regulations (Executive Order 13224), we are also required to collect a full customer statement, which includes a credit check. Even though you may be paying cash for the vehicle, we still need to gather this information to comply with these laws and regulations. Collection of these documents and information are for compliance of state and federal laws and are not negotiable.
* SALES TAX and REGISTRATION
We are a licensed dealer in the state of California and must collect sales tax, registration fees, and transfer titles to new owners according to California law.
California residents (and out of state buyers who take possession of a vehicle in California) must pay us all applicable California sales tax and license fees. Vehicles that are shipped to out of state buyers are responsible for their own taxes and license fees in their own state. That is, unless, the vehicle is being financed, then we are required to guarantee to the lien holder that the sales tax and registration is paid, and therefore will collect and handle the registration of the vehicle in your state.
California law requires that license plates on vehicles shipped out of state are removed and returned to the California Department of Motor Vehicles. It is advised that you contact your local DMV for a temporary registration while your title work is in process.
* SHIPPING OF VEHICLES
Although we will make all efforts to assist you in having your vehicle shipped to you if you so choose, we are not in the shipping business and can not guarantee shipping costs and timetables. We will gladly assist you in locating a shipper with proven reliability and competitive pricing. However, we do not act as their agents and cannot be held accountable for their services.
