Subject: Purchase Agreement Review & Counter-Offer – RAV4 Hybrid

Dear Sales Team / Business Office,

Thank you for providing the quote worksheet for the RAV4 Hybrid. I am looking forward to finalizing this purchase and taking delivery.

Before signing the binding bill of sale, I reviewed the itemized breakdown against provincial automotive retail regulations in Alberta.

Under the Alberta Consumer Protection Act and AMVIC (Alberta Motor Vehicle Industry Council) All-In Price Advertising regulations (Vehicle Sales Regulation s. 11), the advertised vehicle price must be the all-inclusive price, excluding only GST and licensing fees. Documentation, administrative, and pre-delivery preparation fees cannot be added above the advertised price.

To move forward and execute the agreement immediately, please adjust the following line items on the purchase worksheet:

β€’ Remove Documentation / Admin Fee ($695 CAD): Requesting full removal of this non-statutory dealer add-on.
β€’ Adjust Engine Block Heater ($750 CAD): Re-quote to market/OEM target rate of $350 CAD (benchmark: parts list + standard book rate), saving $400 CAD.

Total requested price correction: $1,095 CAD.

I am prepared to place a firm deposit and execute the purchase contract today at the official manufacturer MSRP plus statutory Freight & PDI, federal air conditioning excise tax ($100), provincial tire recycling levy ($20), AMVIC fee ($10), and official provincial licensing fees.

Please send an updated purchase agreement reflecting these corrections, and I will sign right away.

Thank you for your professionalism and assistance.

Sincerely,
