How to Buy a Car (Trust Me ?" I Used to Sell Them)
Summary:
Many Americans are led to believe that buying a car from a dealership in an afternoon is smart and achievable. In reality, buying a car is a significant and complex financial decision?"one that requires careful planning and research.
Buying a car is often the second-largest purchase people make, right after buying a home. When you purchase a home, you typically have a team to assist you: a real estate agent, a mortgage broker, a home inspector, sometimes even an attorney. However, when it comes to buying a car, you're often on your own, and dealerships encourage the misconception that you can easily complete the process in an afternoon. While it's technically possible, rushing through it could mean you'll pay much more than necessary. Here are four tips to give you an edge when buying a car:
1. Visit the Dealership Without Buying
Start with a preliminary visit to the dealership just to look around and test drive vehicles. Make a promise to yourself not to buy on your first visit. This allows you to go home, research online, and gather crucial information like dealer costs, safety ratings, option prices, and undisclosed manufacturer-to-dealer incentives.2. Determine Your Budget Ahead of Time
Know what you can afford before setting foot in the dealership. Consult with your bank or credit union in advance. Some dealerships may try to upsell you on a more expensive car, leading to financial strain or even repossession if you default on the loan.3. Scrutinize Financial Calculations
Always have the finance manager show you their calculations. The monthly payment is a common area where dealerships can overcharge. Even a $20 increase per month over a five-year period can add up to around $500 extra going to the dealership. Understanding or verifying these calculations with your banker can save you a lot.4. Document Everything
Write down all information you gather about the car?"from online research, magazines, and especially from conversations with the salesman. This practice holds everyone accountable and ensures transparency. It keeps the salesman truthful and prevents them from changing details later on.By following these steps, you take control of your car-buying experience and make a more informed decision.
