Is your current ride starting to give you trouble? Maybe you’ve hit your target mileage goal. Or it could be that you just want to experience a new car. Considering it might be a least six years (or more) since you bought you last car, you’re going to discover a lot has changed with car design and it is all good. Before you head to the showroom, you’ll want to do a lot of research to not only narrow down your choices but also to lock onto a price range. Once you get to the dealership, here’s what you need to do to make a deal on a new car:
Talk With Managers
Remember the last time you bought a car? How many times did your salesperson have to say the need to “Run this by the manager?” Apparently, the manager is the one who has the final say, so why not cut out the middle person and go right to the manager? It is probably best to shop at the end of the month because managers need to hit their quotas and will probably be more opening to closing fast deals.
Get Pre-Approved
You’re not only negotiating the price for the vehicle but also the financing. Often, those financing fees can be out of your control especially if you are going through a dealer for your loan. Instead, you should consider getting pre-approved for your car loan. That allows you to know your budget and save time. It also gives you the upper hand on the deal making. If you know the rate you’re getting from the outside, then you could ask the dealer for a lower rate. Just don’t fib because it is all easily checked.
Ask for Rebates
Every television commercial for a car usually includes a special rebate offer. It looks like a good deal if you qualify but the advertised rebates aren’t the only game in town. There are often discounts offered for military personnel, senior citizens, college students and first-time buyers. There might even be a reduction for brand loyalty. Those don’t come from the dealer but the automaker itself. You might need to ask the dealer because they won’t automatically give up that saving information.
Get Your Garage Ready
A lot of thought will go into picking the perfect car but just as much thought should go into where it will be parked at your home. The best spot is in the garage but only if there is room in the garage. If you’re garage is currently occupied with rubbish, then it is time to bring in Junk King Orlando.
