I didnt even explore one-pay options given the low dollar monthly. Preferred to keep my cash available rather than save ~$30/month. But, sure, that would have made it a bit of a cheaper route if they offered one-pay, but I chose not to go that route.
Are you absolutely sure that this is a true sign and drive where the fund provider waives the 1st payment? It looks like the dealer either capped the 1st payment or, most likely, added it to the sell price.
Given the info you provided, I’m calculating a true sign and drive payment of 259.05. I’ll spare you the details. NY tax calculations are complex. However, if you’re interested, let me know.
Good call on NY tax. I’m not sure how the dealer worked it out but in the end I walked out with the car with no money out of pocket and my monthly payment is $275.
