new car?????
Okay this sounds really bad because i work for a Chevrolet dealership and im considering cars other then Chevrolet. But i am looking for a new car.... something that will lower my payment (i pay 500 on my truck) and something better on gas (it cost me about 400-500 a month in gas). Here are the vehicles i am considering.... Chevrolet cobalt....Mitsubishi Eclipse.... Scion Tc... Pontiac Soltics. All would be new or barely used (under 5k miles) Which one would you choose??? I know pretty much all there is to know about the cobalt but im not real familiar with the others. or if you have any other suggestions... just no hondas, acuras, or nissans! thanks
The only true American car on your list is the Pontiac Solstice. Since you already know about the piece of crap called Cobalt, I will badmouth the others. Mitsubishi Eclipse has a pretty good reputation, but when you put a few options on it, you will be paying close to what you are paying for your truck. Scion TC, is a Toyota product and they make pretty good products and most reviews of this car have been favorable. Ahhhhhh, the Pontiac Solstice. The good, the car is a styling knockout. The bad, the car has no reputation, and is reported to be underpowered. The ugly, dealers are marking them up by as much a five grand because they sell well. There is also a rumor that they suffer from a sub frame problem which makes them sag in the middle. The bottom line, The Scion TC by a nose.
Trying to sell my car inIllinois but my car isregistered in New York?
I just moved from New York state to Illinois two months ago. However, my company plans me to move me to the office in California. I'm trying to sell my car in Illinois before I move to California and planning to buy a new or used car over there. I don't plan on changing my title, insurance, registration from NY to Illinois since I'm changing my car and live in California. How can I sell an out-of-state registered car?
You shouldn't have any problem selling it with a NY title. The person who is buying your car should just be able to take the NY title to the DMV to transfer ownership. It might just take a little longer for the paperwork to be done. You may want to check with the DMV in Illinois just to be sure, as motor vehicle laws do vary from state to state.
How do I buy a new car from adealership?
I actually bought a new car back in Nov. '02. Mits. Lancer '03. Well, I regret that. I got totally ripped off. I am still paying for that car plus I have a balloon payment (the interest) coming up in Nov. '07. I know I'm going to be needing a new car soon. I am giving myself some extra time before I buy so I can make the right decision. I narrowed my choices to 2 cars: MINI Cooper/ Toyota Matrix. I ask: How can I haggle prices down? How can I find out what are the taxes in my area? How can get a great loan with my bank? I think I have excellent or almost excellent credit. What advice can you guys give me? (The reason why I'm getting a new car is because my boyfriend is going to be using my Mits. He had to sell his car when we moved. We are both young and need some wise advice. I can't ask my parents for advice because they are dead. I'm not going to get a used car because I'm going to look stupid driving a shite box. Yes I can afford two car payments. Otherwise, I wouldn't be asking for advice. My boyfriend bought us a condo with both of are names on it. He's done a lot for me, so the least I can do is let him use his car since he sold his car so the move could be easier.
Broaden your choices to creat competition for your purchase, as great deals are coming this fall due to sell off of 06 models to make room for 07s. Also: - many auto companies are hurting, thus, look for incentives such as 0% financing for good credit. - Buy during last couple days of month, Sept. - Nov. 06, and last couple of hours of that day - preferably a rainy, cold Friday evening when no one is at the dealer, as salesmen are motivated to make their monthly sales goals, and they love ending their week/day with a sale, even if its not the best commission. - Go to Edmonds.com and leverage internet to get dealers competing for you. Send-off an email to 3-4 and see who is hungry and responds. - Know what your selected vehicle is going for. Edmonds has good data. - Do not buy car that every one wants, as you will pay too much. - Keep emotions under control, do not let them know you love it. - Always ask for more options for less money, and offer much less than sticker w/o insulting them. If you offer a price and they immediately accept, you offered too much. You need to find their lowest price by having them reject your first/second/etc. offer. Have them suggest a number. Counter their answer with facts from your research and with alternative dealers/cars. And, make another offer, typically, no more than 1/2 of the difference between your initial and their reasonable counter. Bottom line - know the highest price you will pay before you get into the negotiations dance, as emotions and logical thinking may be difficult to control at this stage, given the time investment on both sides. And, you need to be prepared to walk away if they do not accept your reasonable offer. The industry makes 15 - 20 million cars/trucks a year. I am sure there is more than one of those that fits your needs. If you get within a couple hundred dollars, ask for more, e.g., options, car mats, free oil changes, 5 tanks of gas, etc. Also, leverage the potential of you getting your vehicle serviced at their dealership, as that is a substantial profit center for them. At this point, your time becomes more valuable than the couple hundred $$, so, get what you can, close-the-deal and drive away.... Good Luck,
