The question of when to buy a car is simple – when you need one. There is no better determinant then your own personal needs. By then you have probably researched everything from interest rates to insurance costs and know all the current pricing information. You may also have had time to save some money for a considerable down payment. Deciding to purchase a car is ultimately up to you, but always be sure to do your homework. There is nothing worse then being stuck with an unwanted car because of an impulse purchase.
On the other hand, the question of where to buy is a little more complex. Once you’ve decided to purchase a car, the next decision of where to shop can be just as hard as choosing the model and color of the car. In fact, it is even suggested that you consider the car dealership just as thoroughly as you would the car you want to buy. Buying a car is already extremely stressful so don’t make the experience worse by choosing a bad dealer. Use the following criteria when selecting a dealer and you’ll be on your way to a smooth ride.
Reputation
The dealership’s reputation is one of the most important things to consider because in more cases than not, the reputation reflects the dealerships true character. For instance, if a dealership has a reputation for being dishonest or shady, they probably are dishonest or shady. I found this to be true when I purchased a car a few months ago. I heard that a local Hyundai dealer was not only honest and but very accommodating to customers so I decided to check it out. I quickly learned that they lived up to their reputation.
