Shopping for and purchasing a new or used vehicle is one of the most stressful things you can do. With all of the types of cars and financing choices, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. The information here will help make buying a car as easy and stress-free as possible.
Never buy a model that is out of your price range. Salespeople will try talking you into buying a luxury or a sports car by telling you this car corresponds to your personality. Remember, the more expensive the car, the more commission he or she will make.
When shopping for a car, consider how the vehicles fuel economy will affect your budget. For instance, a V-8 that can tow may appear to be a good idea. But think about how often you truly require the additional horsepower provided by a V-8 engine and how frequently you will use the towing feature.
The asking price of a car is always just a starting point, and you should never pay that amount. The list price is certainly not set in stone. If you feel that your negotiating skills aren't up to par, take along a friend or family member that has a special talent for it. Know the amount you can reasonably spend, as well as the fair market value, prior to heading to the dealership.
If you aren't confident you can resist high-pressure sale pitches, do not go car shopping alone. A friend can be brought along to help you figure out the worth of the car and ask questions that are important. Also, talk to the person you bring about the amount of money you wish to spend.
Don't buy without test driving. Even if you have previously test driven the same make and model, you need to make sure that this car drives well. There might be a slight difference or mechanical problems that you won't pick up without a test drive.
Consider the mileage a car gets before buying it. For instance, you may think it is wise to buy a vehicle with a V-8 engine and towing capability. But you must consider if you need this feature since it has a lot more horsepower than a regular car.
Never show up at the dealership driving a luxury vehicle. The salesman may take one look at your fancy ride and refuse any low-ball offer you make. If you are looking to trade the vehicle in, this does not apply.
Request that the dealer allow you to have the car inspected by a mechanic. It should be one that you trust. Don't use a dealer mechanic. Your mechanic should tell you both whether the car runs well and whether it's priced appropriately.
This advice will remove the stress from shopping for a car. As long as you're able to afford the vehicle, it will be fun to drive it every day. This will ensure you are making the best investment.
