You may have had stressful car buying experiences in the past that are intimidating. You need to learn how to properly negotiate. You do not have to settle.

When you shop for a car, you need to figure out what you're looking for first. Do you have your budget in mind? How many people are you going to transport? What mileage are you looking for? Do you need four or two doors? Write down the features you want to avoid forgetting any.

Focus on the overall price, not the monthly price, in negotiations. The dealer can set the monthly payments at any amount, but this will extend your terms, resulting in a very high purchase price. That's why you need to look at the total price and the financing on that. Once you do this, determine how this will apply to you monthly.

If you already drive a nice vehicle, avoid taking that car to the dealership with you. The sales staff will see that car and decline your rock bottom offers, unless the car is one you plan to use as a trade-in.

Always negotiate the price of a vehicle. The dealer isn't expecting to get the asking price. If you lack assertiveness, bring along someone who is comfortable with negotiating. Before you go to the showroom, know what a good price is for the car so you will know your limits.

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.

Car salesmen have quotas to meet. That's why it pays to shop for cars at the end of the month. Salespeople who have not yet made their quota will be more willing to negotiate in order to seal the deal. This will let you have more control over price negotiations.

Try planning car shopping trips near the end of a month. Most salespeople have some monthly quotas to meet and they might try generating more sales during the last week of the month to meet their quotas. When the month is coming to an end, the person that's selling cars may not have met their quota quite yet. This means they may be willing to give you a better deal in the end.

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.

Now that you have read this article, you are more prepared than even when it comes to shopping for a new car. Start by doing your research. If you don't feel comfortable with your purchase, walk away from the deal.
