11 Car Buying Tips
1. Before you begin shopping for a car, you have to determine how much you can spend and what your Montreal bank's interest rate is for new and used vehicles. You should get pre-approval from your bank if you can because this will enhance your negotiating stance and help you obtain the best bargain quickly.
2. Next you need to find out new and used car prices on the Internet, in the library, bookstore or various other Montreal dealerships. Be sure to insist that the salesman shows the dealer's invoice to you. He can still make a profit by selling new cars at the price he bought them.
3. Avoid wasting your funds trying to improve your old car in order to try to get the best price on your trade-in. Rather than fix up your car swap out new tires, radios, trailer hitches and other accessories with other people for money that will decrease the loss you take on the trade in.
4. Now, once you begin your shopping at Montreal dealerships don't go alone. Take someone with you. This will give you an advantage over with the salesman.
5. Only buy used cars from lots that are connected to new car dealer. They only keep the best trade-ins to sell themselves.
6. Most people do not follow this next tip. Don't get too attached to a car before buying it. If you do it will make it much more difficult for you to get a descent price and later on you might realize that you actually can not afford it.
7. Never, ever purchase a used car from anyone without having it thoroughly inspected by your own mechanic first.
8. If you have a trade in as part of the bargain be sure to get back your car keys before you start negotiating your deal. This will put you in control of how long the negotiations last and allow you to leave when you want to rather than have to wait until the salesman gives you back your keys.
9. Spend the time you need and shop around. Don't fall for any line that you need to rush your decision.
10. For the best bargain, negotiate your purchase during the last two days of the month and the last two hours of the working day for the dealership. This is always rush time for Montreal dealers and can work in your favour as they want to close sales so they can get them recorded before the end of the month.
11. The final one of our car buying tips is this. When checking out mileage and the age of the car remember that the average for most used cars is 25,000 kilometres per year. After passing the 150,000 kilometre mark they can be a chancy investment.
