So I have a question...If I ordered a car, all I agreed to pay was the amount written on the order, $35,367. I can refuse all the extra fees then, right? Including documentation fee? If they don't agree, then they can lose the sale, correct? And I get my deposit back.

All of this is bunk. It's in the holdback that Toyota pays the dealership. And the profit they make.

IMO...
The PDI should be including in the Destination charge.
TT&L should include all work regarding that.
Loaner cars are a curtousy of Lexus, are they not?
It sure doesn't cost 500 bucks to wash a car, especially since I would probably refuse said wash.

My Lexus dealer did not add any additional fees to my purchase of my 250. Although by the time I got around to signing the papers the saleman and salesmanager realized I had done my pricing homework and I would know if they were trying to pull any hidden fees on me.
