10 Mistakes Lots of People Make When Buying a New Car

According to statistics, most drivers change their car once every six years, which is a pretty long period of time. To take the best out of your car in those six years, to save money and to avoid constant repairing, you’d better avoid ten mistakes many of us make when buying a car.
One day you’ll probably decide to sell your car. That’s why you have to consider some important features. According to Paint supplier PPG Industries, white is the most popular car color in the US with 35 percent of all sold vehicles. It is followed by black with 17 percent, and silver and gray that both got a 12 percent popularity.
In case you want to purchase some good old German luxury brands such as BMW or Mercedes-Benz, you have to be prepared to pay around $17,800 and $12,900 for ten years of maintenance accordingly. US popular brand Cadillac comes next with an average $12,500 maintenance cost for the same period of time.
Additional airbags, a passenger sensing system that can tell the size of the person in the seat and save smaller children in case of a crash, auto-dimming mirrors to reduce the glare coming from headlights at night, head restraints and ABS are some of the things you don’t want to save money at.
Make a check-list of features you need to check and think of where you’ll be driving your new vehicle. Try driving on the highway and park in uncomfortable conditions if that’s what you know you’ll have to do in the future. Examine everything to help yourself make the right decision.
Don’t be afraid to miss “the deal of a lifetime.” You must have noticed those come up now and then, so you shouldn’t let them pressure you into making a wrong financial decision that will affect your budget for years.

SUMMARY
-First, the car brand matters: there are brands that are more or less popular among drivers. Second, you need to think about the vehicle specifications and the engine. Third, don’t forget about its color.
-Think of how much of your family budget car maintenance can make, and decide if you want to spend that much on your vehicle after you’ve purchased it.
-Some drivers don’t smoke inside their cars. In this case, they don’t need an ashtray. An additional corrosion treatment is useless as well because cars already have an anti-corrosion treatment.
-The best choice is a car model that is no more than three years old and already well-known.
-Try to predict how many times you’re going to travel by car, how many passengers will be there, and so on.
-A premium class car will give you better safety, high performance and increased comfort their manufacturers guarantee.
-Gather as much information as possible at reliable websites and among your friends, consult an independent specialist, and test drive your chosen car.
-The best time to buy a car starts in December and reaches its peak in March.
-Try to call or send emails to different dealerships saying you have a better offer and asking if they can beat it.
-Spend enough time to gather information, consulting specialists, and weighing the pros and cons.

My manager had fits because I didn't "close the deal" on the spot, but MOST of my customers came back and either purchased that car or decided it didn't fit their needs and tried something else rather than be stuck with an expensive purchase that the wife will hate and won't suit your needs.

Some of the kids in my high school had them lifted (about 2 to 3 feet, sometimes gutted with huge V8 8 Liter engines for mudding). It was fine, they did it themselves and had great practice welding and fabricating modifications. We even had people working on modifications during ag class since, so even during school people were modifying things. Nothing like going to class and seeing your classmates welding roll cages into their vehicle!

Number ONE mistake. Don't buy new!!! Especially the luxury or just simply higher priced ones. It's BETTER to buy one of those that is 1-2 years old instead. You'll PRACTICALLY pay just HALF the price of new. My brother in law had bought a 1 year old Ford Explorer a few years ago for $28000. And that particular model (and features) cost nearly $50000 NEW! YOU SEE THAT?

so just take it to an inspection, a 1k ispection, 5k repair job is still cpeaper than the car new, also not all cars are defective people don't sell their cars when they have defected they get an insurence pay out, the only problem people lie about is accident but all you need is a jack to look for cracks in the subframe, also look at the listing if they say V4 they are dumb and probably did't take car of it, also there is dead reliable cars, you can get a volvo 240 for under 1k and it will live longer than you

[@MrThisIsMeToo]

Never buy new is the best rule these days. Even more so than the luxury German cars. They drop so much in the first 2 years. I rotate through new BMWs every 1.5 years. I just picked up a used BMW that was 1 year and 5 months old with 24k miles for $42k off original sticker. Ever better advise for states that charge a yearly excise tax on cars. The excise tax drops dramatically each year.

[@kristijan8518]

Don't spread the trick dude. If people stop bying new, we won't have cheap used cars to buy :D

[@shanc.7008]

My 2008 Highlander Sport has over 280,000 miles and still running smoothly. Tips, every 5000-7500 use mobile one full synthetic oil, rotate tire, balance every 5000 miles, replace air filter and cabin air filter after every oil change. Wash the engine bay every 10,000 miles, transmission & radiator flush once a years, and drive normally so your car can last for 10 years.

[@anthonylewis2080]

On a VW forecourt in SW London, I'd seen the much criticized Phaeton that was only 15 months old (diesel engine) and it lost £10,000 in such a short space of time - that's the average cost of a basic specced city car. The message here is clear : if you want a prestige vehicle (like the aforementioned - it shares very much of the Bentley GT coupé) purchase when the car is two years old : you're likely to pay a much lower cost due to its initial depreciation and there's going to be some warranty left. Makes perfect sense!.

Imagine if you didn't have to buy the car in the first place, just pay for the use of a car.

[@andraslibal]

That would cost way way more than buying a used car. Just look at current car sharing services.

[@AeroPR]

I assume you are referring to leasing a car. Imagine if instead of giving $400 away a month to a bank to lease a car forever you saved and invest that amount from age 25 to age 60 at 9% rate of return. You would be a millionaire at retirement.

[@andraslibal]

Your assumption is wrong. I am referring to buying a car that is in working condition. It is possible to buy such a car for around $3000. It's not a new car but it works ok its maintenance is not that expensive and now you can start saving for more important things. Your scheme of an infinitely extended, guaranteed 9% return is a fantasy. If you invest in something riskier to get to the 9% and you don't know what you are doing you are very likely to lose all your money.

[@dmjjackson]

I have two issues with this advice. Issue one, luxury cars depreciate more than regular brands. Take a look at an 8 -10 year old Mercedes CLK or S-class. Issue two, depending on where you live, the "Optional extra corrosion protection" will not be wasted money. If you live somewhere with snow and salted roads, this will not only be a selling feature to add value for resale, it may be the difference between selling you car versus scrapping it.

[@draconpost]

That's because Mercedes is literally one of the worst brands made nowadays. What kind of luxury it is when it has to be towed and repaired five times a year and rusts faster than other 10x less expensive cars? It's a joke.

The trick in which you tell about another dealership with better prices is very useful in electronics too, if you get a $400 microwave in one shop and a $500 microwave in a trusted shop, then you may even give them the details of the other shop and then get the microwave at $350. Also, if you live in a joint family, then I suggest that you should buy all your cars from a certain dealership, so that you can negotiate prices saying you are a regular customer.

[@loojishtc9899]

Some people just like cars. And they are happy to spend money on something they enjoy. It's not always about the "best" deal. For me, driving is pure pleasure, I love cars and all the tech, I love the sound of a powerful engine and appreciate the skill and design that went into making the car. If everybody only ever spent the bare minimum, there would be no car industry left. If you have the money, and you enjoy it, it's not a mistake to pay for it.

[@jk-si7gj]

It is better also to ask how many owners this car had because statistically if the number of owner is big the car is more likely to have some features that are altered or even deleted but you still paying for (eg the seat belt alarm)

[@jakegarrett8109]

Maybe, or if I owned it, expect 30,000 modifications. So statistically speaking, the less time I own it, the less time I've had to make modifications.

[@jakegarrett8109]

Actually I just thought about that. I was going to do some modifications that are legal for me, but illegal for most people. Program my own control unit (remote start, automated rev sequence and LED show display all activated with the push of a button going through encrypted controllers with literally 1 of a kind programming). However, I would need to change the radio frequencies for the next car owner, because I was going to use frequencies only allowed by HAM radio licence holders like myself. Good point, maybe I should start with radio legal for the average Joe from the beginning.

[@taz874]

Not just for any modifications but also if a car has had alot of owners in a short period of time then it could indicate its not very reliable. Eg if a car has had say 4 owners in only 5 years. A car with less owners can usually mean its been reliable

[@EdwinvandenAkker]

[@michaelpetrakiss]

drunk1kangaroo true. But again it's not just any clio it's the rs model so parts are not that common

[@DENZELADIBOSS]

This is exactly what I thought too, plus since the e90 is one of the more popular luxury vehicles, parts are cheaper than you think

[@taz874]

I guess they factor in reliability costs i mean a old beamer is more likely to break down and require more maintenance. Then fuel wise the beamer is likely to be heavier on fuel than the Clio. But as you pointed out its a Clio RS a regular Clio would probably be better on reliability and fuel

[@michaelpetrakiss]

taz874 Bimmers aren’t that bad in terms of reliability. And as you said it has very bad fuel economy compared to a regular Clio. But the RS model might be kinda worse. Also, (coming from a Renault owner) Renaults break A LOT. And parts are not cheap, especially for newer models..😏

[@SegaDisneyUniverse]

This is definitely helpful since I'm saving up for a first car in the future. I got my license in February but barley got to drive since...

[@jakegarrett8109]

Practice practice practice. Even practice drifting in an empty parking lot (especially do this as well in the snow and ice), it's very likely it may save your life someday (and maybe even your families). You need to know how to push your car to its limits to avoid danger and get to safety under all conditions.

Never buy a 2nd hand car from a dealership that is marketed as ‘as traded’ no registration or road worthy certificate - when a dealship gets a trade in they do an appraisal and if the car is going to cost a lot to get a road worthy certificate or needs a lot of attention they will sell it ‘as traded’

[@alfonsozavala9352]

The first half of the video is pretty good accurate. I have been selling cars for +2 years but a lot of the dealership's in my area (Midwest) are now going to a 1 price way of sales. It eliminates pushy sales and we also don't work off commission. The best thing is to ask your dealership is they are a one price dealership it will eliminate most of the problems in the second half of the video.

Bro toyota is toyota nobody can beat it's quality one of the best car company I will suggest u to buy toyota innova crysta it will be better for your family I own it

[@Fgghgrgrhgfnvkmd]

my recommendation is to try living with that car for a week. Use services like Turo, rent out the same model from them, experience it and then make a decision. I did the same and realized getting a Camry was better than getting the civic.

[@dragoncrackers7660]

Buy only from new car dealerships (they have used cars to) and never finance through the car lot. Get a pre-approval from your bank. Then you know your budget and cant possibly be tricked or talked into going over budget and you already know your interest rate. And never tell them how much your pre-approval check is. If you have 15k, tell them your budget is 10. The price is always higher than their bottom line. Check the car over for dents and scratches. Excuse yourself to the bathroom. Check on your phone how much the car goes for and dont pay much more over that. Also remember you have to pay tax and fees so the price will be a little higher than the agreed price.

[@rich7447]

Except that manufacturers often have great incentives to finance. When I bought my pickup the dealer gave me an extra $1,500 off if I financed through the manufacturer. I had to finance at least $3,500 at 0% on a 4 year term and I could pay it off at any time. I took the $1500 and paid it off 60 days later, but the deal (4 years 0% apr) was still better than any bank would have given me.

[@dragoncrackers7660]

Good Point. Yea, if your buying a new car.. either way, doing your research can save you tons. Iv seen people pay horrible interest rates for no reason. You have to know, going in, what your willing to pay. If you get a better deal than that, bonus.

The description of this video... I like that

[@holiday-td6hx]

to Several years ago my DH & I purchased a 1999 Ford Ranger Truck. We had friends that usually purchase their cars either in March OR December, so we started looking in October, and when we had decided to purchase the Ford Ranger with a crew cab in December. We purchased the car on December 17, 1999...and got a great deal because we had emailed and talked to 3 different dealers and the dealers and the salesmen all knew we were talking 3 different dealerships. We got an excellent deal on our Ford Ranger. I am thrilled that Ford is bringing back the Ranger, however, since 2005 I have been leasing our cars. I am leery about leasing a truck, simply because if you use the truck for what it is made for (we have quite a few things we plan to do with our home, remodeling etc. and if I lease and the truck were to get more than just regular wear & tear from the months we leased (usually we lease for 24-36 months) then I would have to fix what ever damage we did to the truck instead of normal wear and tear. When my lease was up for the Chevy Monte Carlo in 2009, I had to pay $234.00 for the body shop at the dealership to fix the bottom of the driver's side door because my DH didn't judge how far he was away for the drive thru at the bank. I have to get the driver's side mirror replaced on our current Ford C-Max due to my DH damaging that however, I am not going to have the dealer's body shop fix it, I am going to take it to a well-known Body Shope in my area. I actually love leasing!!! We don't have to worry about any serious type of problems with the autos I lease, and for the most part you can return the auto 6 months PRIOR to the end of the lease agreement which means I can turn the Ford C-Max (2016) in next month if I choose to do so.

White color's popularity is not because everybody loves them but because car sellers charge you extra money for metallic paint! Thus people go for the white color instead of paying extra for something that is not crucial.

I bought a new Suzuki XL7 in 2008 & have put over 259,000 miles on it , needing to take it in for repairs a few times mainly electronic sensors needing to be replaced which didn't cost much & had to have catalytic converters replaced 2 years ago which was my most expensive repair at $1,500.00 , other than those it was just repairs that due to wear as in replacing tires , wheel bearings , rotors , oil changes , transmission flush , having filters replaced & taking it to a body shop because I hit a deer & due to hail damage. Windshield replacement is free where I live which has saved me quite a bit of money.

[@nodak81]

Never let a salesman "steer" you. Look at what you came to see and nothing else, they only suggest things that will make them more money. I remember when I went to look at a used full-size van and they guy immediately tried to get me to look at a sub-compact car. When I insisted he started to purposely waste time so I just left. Some places just reek of scumbag.

I bought my car with a brand new model year, I haven't had issues with it. I suppose I did get a little lucky with that..but it's great feeling like the only person on the road with that car for a good 1 to 2 years, otherwise why buy brand new in the first place if it's been out for 3 years already?

[@martinkuliza]

@kevin Very true, there is THE EXPERIENCE isn't there. so.. when you're driving to work in the morning and you are pretty much the only person on the road with a new car and everyone around you has a 10+year old car back in 08 i bought a brand new Mazda 6 Luxury sports 08 Model Leather, Sunroof , the whole bit it was amazing and a pleasure to drive

[@rainystorm88]

Not to buy new car is somewhat of a myth. For the vast majority, yes, it's a bad idea, and it is almost always better to buy used. But for the financial literate, buying new is sometimes better! I've bought 3 used cars and 3 new cars in my lifetime (for me and my family members). I actually prefer buying new. Here's why: 1) I always buy new cars AT THE RIGHT PRICE. With 10-20% off MSRP. I do this by not buying it the day it gets released but wait a few months after the new model demand cools off. I then shop around and negotiate with at least 3 dealerships to find the best deal. This way I get to take full advantage of factory warranty and sometimes free maintenance. I usually only lose 10% of the car’s value after 3 years of ownership. (on paper, it did lose 30% in 3 years. BUT in many cases new cars can be had for 20% under MSRP, after 3 years I could sell it with only a 10% loss. if I wanted to.) Take into account of the wear and tear items that you need to replace soon after buying a 3 year-old car such as brake pads and tires, it’s actually not a bad deal. People say “you lose 20% of the value when you drive off the lot” because they overpay for new cars! 2) More on cost of maintenance: The difference between buying a new car and a used car that is, for instance, 3 years old, is not the cost of the first 3 years of maintenance (which is small), it is actually the cost of the LAST 3 years of the car. For example, if you buy a new car and keep it for 10 years, versus if you buy a 3 year-old car and keep it for 10 years, the difference in maintenance cost is year 11 to year 13 of the car. And the older the car is, the more it costs to maintain. 3) I buy a new car when I plan to keep it for a really long time (10-15 years). Because when you sell a car too soon, you are taking the depreciation hit repeatedly (every time you buy a new car). Plus you have to pay the sales tax every time you buy a new car. Now when your car hits 100k miles, it is incredibly valuable to know the entire history of your car. Not doubting if the previous owner had abused it or damaged any parts gives you such a peace of mind. 4) More on vehicle history: It is also hard to put a price on not knowing the vehicle history. Yes, you can hire a mechanic to do a pre-purchase inspection. But there are so many things they cannot see. For example, if the car has been in a wreck and had parts replaced, not totaled so still holds a clean title. How do you make sure the replacement parts are up to the original manufacturer's standards? What if the structural integrity isn't intact? What if the airbags aren't installed correctly? Your next accident might be the one that kills you because you went for a used car. Again, this is hard to put a price on, but to me, it's worth a little bit of money. 5) This only applies to people good with personal finance skills. When getting a new car, you can often take advantage of 0% financing where you can build your credit score while investing the money elsewhere. What I do is, first, I make sure I have enough cash to buy the car out right (i.e. you should never buy anything you can't afford). Then, I make sure to put 1/3 down (even though it's 0%) so that the car will never be "upside down" in value (i.e. the money I owe is always less than what the car is worth). And I put the rest of the money in a diverse mutual fund to generate ~8% return every year. There is no harm in financing a car if you are responsible with money.

[@jakegarrett8109]

Brakes and tires? Those are going to cost about $650 to buy a new set, like a performance tire set... My family has bought a lot of used cars (they start looking after they reach 200k miles, and we buy those and drive them until 300k miles). Funny thing is, we sometimes sell them at the exact same price we paid (plus maybe $50 in parts and an evening getting them in tip top shape). I can buy sometimes 20 used cars (that will last another 100k miles each with minimal maintenance) for the same as someone spends on a new $20k car. I can drive a DOZEN of them into a brick wall, and still have 8 good cars left. IDK, but used cars seem like a lot better deal to me. Oh side note: My current car is illegal to manufacture now, so you can't buy any more new rotary powered cars, you just can't. So you can't buy really amazing cars (one of my dream cars as a mechanical engineer) new, they just can't make them. You also can't get classics either.

[@andrepol6568]

rainystorm88 Yeah that a lie and you know it no new car loses just 10% in 3 years....

[@rainystorm88]

Andre Pol on paper, it did lose 30% in 3 years. BUT in many cases new cars can be had for 20% under MSRP,* in practice, in my experience at least, after 3 years I could sell it with only a 10% loss** if I wanted to. All I did was share my experiences. so believe it or not, it's up to you. *This is when people wait a few months after a new model gets released, buy during huge manufacturer's rebate offerings, and know how to compare prices and negotiate with dealers. **The loss of 10% does not include taxes and fees paid, which means I still won't sell my car after just 3 years, or else I would have lost the nearly 10% sales tax here in California when I bought it new. I'm just saying new cars do not lose as much value as people think they do.

[@pratik1568]

Jake Garrett when u buy a brand new car you get the free servicing and warranty from the manafacturer so not a lot of money is wasted plus having that new car feel and smell is such a wonderful experience btw most people dont sell their new cars within 2-3 years time unless they absolutely hate it or it had some problems before not everyone is a petrol head who like to work on second hand junk for a week

[@FPaco14]

My tip is always buy a 2-3 year old car its when its biggest depreciation is lost and the lowest cost to repair is and if you need to buy a new car always lease

[@evaraquinio5192]

FPaco14 8

[@leilanikuuipo6004]

Leasing is a utter waste of money. If you have the money for the lease down payment when you return the car you gain nothing. Much cheaper to purchase a used pre own certified vehicle or a car at the 2-3 mark of a vehicle where the depreciation really has set in by then. We pay cash for our vehicles. We keep a never touch savings account and everything from pennies we find on the ground. Bonus Miracle money etc all goes in 1 acct for the vehicles. If you can save you'll pull it off but if you keep touching your savings them creating car payments = debt. Think travels, mortgage payments, future retirement etc. I'm just such a penny pincher it's the best decision we've made by having savings for all different needs and only 1 savings that you touch for emergencies. Most Americans don't have 10k in the bank and most Americans are 3 weeks from being homeless when living at their needs or w/ credit cards. Invest properly.

Here's a tip that goes with the test drive. have a friend go with you. let him ride in the front, and then the back seat. Some problems are easier to notice based on where you sit.
