Are you planning to buy a new car soon? You want to be prepared before you finalize your purchase. So we created these tips for buying a new car. Shoppers throughout Fenton, Brighton, and Howell, Michigan, can benefit from this knowledge that LaFontaine Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (CDJR) of Fenton will give you, so you can be successful.
Before you decide on a car or begin car shopping, apply for financing. Your financing will be secure, and you’ll know about the cars that fall into your price range. It’s easy to do, and you can fill out the application at any time.
When you’ve finished the application, you can submit it to our finance department. A savvy finance expert will review your application, determine your eligibility, and reach out to lenders for their most competitive rates. Then they will be able to discuss your finance options, which we’ll talk about in a little while.
Since we carry so many different cars, it’s best to conduct some research about the types of cars that may fit your lifestyle. Read our reviews and comparisons for an overview of the features, capabilities, and styles that may be up your alley. Cross-reference these resources with a search through our inventory using the virtual search engine and available filters.
You may also wish to check out the car section of US News and World Report for further information about the cars that you’re considering. Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds can also impart more information about the market value of diverse cars and what they offer.
Remember, too, to make a list of all the features that you want your car to have. It could be a system that you have never used before but would like to try. Or maybe a family member or friend has a panoramic moonroof or another special feature that appeals to you. Or it may be that must-have item that you can't live without.
After you’ve come up with a list of possible candidates, you may want to add to your knowledge by scheduling a test drive. When you go for the test drive, it’s important to prepare yourself with questions for the sales representative. Also, you’ll want to take a look around the outside of the car and test out all the instrumentation inside.
If you’re a current car owner, trading in your car can add to your down payment or create a satisfying down payment. That way, you’ll be able to afford the cars that you want and make a dent in the monthly payment. And we benefit from getting gently used cars from our customers.
Think about your finance options before you shop. Have you leased a car before or have you taken out a loan? If you’re unsure which way to go, a finance expert can talk to you about what may suit you best. By reviewing your application and hearing about your driving goals, budget, and lifestyle, they can steer you in the right direction.
