10 Tips That Can Save You Thousands on a New Car
Here are ten simple tips that can save you thousands on a new car or truck. Find the right car at the lowest price, and then pay even less!
- Take your time, think through your options before buying.
- Learn the true price of every car you are interested in, factory invoice and MSRP.
- Look for low interesting financing deals. If you have good credit you’re likely to be able to find APR as low as 0%.
- Buy during manufacturer “sales events”. Rebates and incentives have resulted in $5,000+ discounts on new vehicles in the past year.
- Test drive multiple makes and models. Sometimes there is very little difference in quality between brands, while prices vary greatly.
- Carefully consider you’re lifestyle, needs, and budget before buying. Using these as guides will enable you to select the right car.
- Work with recommended local dealers, check reviews online and ask people you know.
- Negotiate with multiple dealers to find the best offer in your area.
- Maintain control throughout the negotiating process. Remember, it’s your money, you get to choose how to spend it.
- Ask questions. Don’t worry about looking stupid, the dumbest thing a new car buyer can do is make a decision without complete information.
