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.

Look for your car on the Internet before going to the lot. You should be sure of what you want before you go to the lot. You should do a little Internet research first to see what brand might work for you, which cars are the safest and other things that a dealership won't tell you.

Take care of financing before you get to the dealer. You should do this through your bank. This can often result in better interest rates. This can allow you to visit a dealership with the knowledge of knowing the amount of money you can afford on a vehicle.

Discuss cars with people in your life that you trust. Are they pleased with their own vehicles? Are they sorry they purchased the vehicle? Have they heard anything interesting about current models? When you are looking for a new vehicle, keeping your ear to the ground is a great way to do some starting research in your hunt.

Prior to buying a car, make sure you test drive it. Even if you once had the same exact vehicle, you have to be sure that this one works just as well. There may just be something going wrong with it that you didn't know about until you took it for a test drive first.

Safety features are important when you are shopping for a new car. The car must have ABS or anti-lock brakes. Air bags should also be present; the more of them there are, the better off you are. Safety is important because you are often in your car.

Don't discuss trade-ins, incentives or down payments before negotiating a base price. These will be removed from that bottom line price. You will get a better price by negotiating the deal first, and then discussing these "extras".

Car salesmen have quotas to meet. Take advantage of car shopping at the end of a month. Salespeople who have not yet made their quota will be more willing to negotiate in order to seal the deal. These quotas will help you be able to argue out a better deal.

You should not expect to necessarily walk away from a dealership with a vehicle. Checking local papers, listings and smaller vehicle lots may hold the key to finding the car you want without having to pay a big price. You should use your newspaper or sales pad to find a car from a private owner.

Many people find car shopping to be harrowing. Car shopping can be a fun experience if you take the time beforehand to learn about the process. Each tip you've just read will help you to get along in the process.
