gs_535xi, I see you are replying to your own posts now!

And, BTW, if you went to math class, 15% added to $90K = $103.5K.

One other issue is that most people don't usually include tax when saying how much their car cost because tax rates vary so much from state to state, country to country. They just use capitalized cost price they paid, not including tax. So, for the future, I'd use that figure...might save you some more grief.
So, in your case, it's more like your dad paid $80K for the car, or so (given the final discount)...and the other stuff is just under the classification of "mods" which I wouldn't even include in your car price...and then tax.
$80K X 15% tax = $92K + $4K for exhaust & spoiler = $96K
You now have a $80K car (give or take), so everyone, give the poor kid a break!

Based on your math above, it would seem as though you didn't...but I'd love to know what your invoice price for the car was. Any idea?
