Finding The Right Car

by Lyn Henderson

There are many costs associated with buying car. There are many things that are not disclosed to the car buyer that are major concerns on your next car purchase.

Popularity of the vehicle you want to buy is because of many factors. The cost of ownership for example is much less on a Toyota or Honda than a Kia for example. Toyotas and Hondas have the lowest cost of ownership than any other car.

There are many fees that you need to look at when you buy a car from a dealer. Look for a dealer doc prep fee and know what the actual sales tax rate is and what the title and licensing fees are going to be. Some dealers will inflate these costs on the contract and you can stop this if you know the actual costs.

Look at your local bank or credit unions interest rates before you sign a dealer contract for financing. Interest rates can be negotiable for good credit borrowers. Dealers will sometimes get a kick-back from the lender to place your loan with them.

Dealers pay about average trade for their vehicles. The condition of the actual car and the title will determine the dealer value. If the car has very little reconditioning the car will yield more money at the auction.

Make sure you look at the depreciation of the vehicle. If a car depreciates rapidly it is not a good buy. The older the vehicle the less it will depreciate. Toyotas and Hondas depreciate very slowly but Kia and some American made brands have very fast depreciation.
