How to approach and what to look for when buying a NEW car?
By Cars & Motorcycles on May 07, 2009 with Comments 3
I’m working and saving up to buy a new car. I’m looking at buying a new Dodge Charger (won’t buy it until next summer though). When I go to buy the car I will have nearly 2/3′s of the MSRP ready for the down payment. I have no credit (except for a cell phone in my name) but in December I am going to take out a small loan and repay it so I can establish credit.
What I need to know is how the whole process of buying a new car works. What do I need to look out for? How do I prepare myself or whatever? etc. etc. etc.
Can anyone give me tips or point me to the right websites where I can learn about this stuff?

read good site.
Be confident, and remember They need your business, you don’t need theirs, there’s plenty other dealers out there who can help. And don’t reveal how much $$$ you have for down payment, they’ll try to get all of it.
Before buying a new Dodge Charger, you should reasearch the term “negative equity”.
If you cannot afford to put 20% down and make payments for 48 or fewer months, then you truely cannot afford to buy a Charger.
If you finance for 60 or 72 mos, you will be in that car for at least 5 years, or will do yourself severe financial disservice by financing thousands of dollars of negative equity into a new loan.
