Outsmart a car salesman with these 5 tips. Car buying Tips

[@crazeenydriver]

I went new car shopping 3 weeks ago, found a leftover 2021 Civic base model which was just what I wanted. Sticker said $22,500 which I was fine with. I texted the dealer, made an appointment and showed up on time. Road tested a 2 year old Civic, similar car, but the sticker price was MORE than the new one on the showroom floor, which I thought was weird. When I sat down with the dealer, he told me that I had to pay $5000 over sticker price to get the car I wanted. Bad as that was, he had the balls to try to use a *four square* on me. I told him no way would I allow a 4 square to be used, I learned all about them on this channel, and no way would I pay $5k over sticker. The salesman then brought the sales manager over and he told me he had a little "wiggle room" on the 5k. I told him "I am only interested if you can wiggle it down to 0 because I will NEVER pay over sticker" and I walked out. Dealers here in the north east are openly price gouging and engaging in usury. Its sick.

[@ang3r3dv3t]

Good for you!

[@coleg5578]

I suppose you haven’t considered the fact that maybe it’s because that could be the only new one they have and won’t be able to replace? There’s a reason why the used car was more than the MSRP of the new one, it’s called market value and it’s sky high right now. No, you didn’t bust some “shady dealer games” like you think, they probably had to buy that car for over MSRP from the previous owner. I’ll be honest, I work at a dealer and we don’t charge over sticker to avoid customer experiences like this, but people also are inconsiderate of the fact that most other retailers can and have been raising prices like crazy to keep up with increased labor costs and supply shortages yet nobody accuses Kroger of price gouging, but we dealers are figuratively constricted by a SUGGESTED retail price set by a slow-moving team of corporate overlords that doesn’t change as quickly as the market does.

[@tdadp]

Oh hell no once the 4 square comes out get up and walkout that door. It’s bad enough they’re are charging over keyword suggested retail price .

[@jackson7421]

I hear you. I’m in PA and looked at a new KIA, they wanted $7k over MSRP and would not come down at all. I left that conversation quick

[@Usmc031189]

Just waited it out. I'm planning to buy a car in 2 to 3 years. The price Gouging is ridiculous.

[@YasssStitch]

He's surprisingly honest. Do everything ahead, negotiate the car ahead through emails and text. Go in once it's agreed on. Purchase agreement should have car price, trade in (it's not even a trade, it's two separate transactions, which is why you sign two power of attorney letters), tax, title, license and doc fee ($300 tops). THAT'S IT. Absolutely nothing else.

[@cuzzinolaf]

I've always been good with negotiation deals and tell my friends all the same things you mentioned. The OTD price is key and then using a calculator to figure out the payment is the best advice. So many people are fixated on the payment and get screwed over. Hell, I've argued with finance managers over $4 a month based on principle. Solid and honest advice here, good luck with the new dealership!!

[@mimit1081]

Was ready to commit to new car today. Had positive equity on my trade in the amount of $3k. When I got the numbers from the salesman there was an addendum for $2997. Asked what it was and of course it was all the garbage charges we've been warned about on this channel. Left without it.

With trade ins, this is something I’ve always thought about. If you tell them you front, they tend to give you more for trade in but won’t haggle much off the new car. If you wait, you can get a better deal on the new car but they low ball the trade in because they know you want the new car lol

[@bw1955]

When I went to buy my truck in January, the salesman made a comment about how I kept deflecting when he tried to talk payments. I kept bringing it back to the total price out the door. It was funny that he pulled the classic, “If your payment is $xxx, do we have a deal?” I asked where he was getting that from and with what interest rate? He said that’s for the finance department lol. Sooooooo how can you even talk about payments without an interest rate in the equation???? Just have some sense when you walk in there. It is like every other loan you could take out. Total price and interest are what matters.

[@TactileCoder]

Car dealerships are basically a cartel. I wish the Federal government would step in and allow direct sales. I'm tired of dealing with salesmen. The fact that I have to "outsmart" someone to purchase a good is inherently the problem here Chevy Dude. The entire practice needs to end.

[@jacobr1095]

I visited two dealers while car shopping a few weeks ago and both seemed to be doing some sort of markup. The Toyota dealer I went to said they're doing a straight 11% markup on all new cars, and the Mazda dealer I was at claimed they were doing a $3,000 mark up on all new cars. I ended up browsing the online inventory of the Mazda dealer and found a base Mazda 3 where the MSRP was also the dealer price, didn't seem to be a markup. I emailed the dealer about the MSRP and out the door price, and once they confirmed everything, I went the next day to buy the car. Their reason for no markup was apparently they seemed to moving more Mazda 3s than expected, so they were ok with sticker price. A total 180 from when I talked to a salesperson the day before who said all cars had a 3k markup. Oh and it definitely helped to shop around for auto loans as well. I got the dealer to match what my credit union was offering so I went with their financing. I still made some stupid mistakes that I probably wouldn't have made if I did more homework, but this car buying experience was 1000% better than the first time I bought a car.

[@MM-pn8ho]

What mistakes did you make?

[@jacobr1095]

@@MM-pn8ho Sorry if this is the second response. I'm not sure if my first went through... I was preapproved for financing through my credit union, so I planned to purchase some other service packages - GAP coverage, extended warranty, etc. through the credit union. The dealer ended up matching the rate I was given, so I decided to use the dealer for financing. However, because I was planning on using the credit union for the service packages, I didn't bother checking what price the credit union charged for their packages. So when the dealer gave me a price for the GAP coverage they offer, I couldn't really counter them with what the credit union offered. Looking back I could have asked a few more questions to the credit union for their pricing. Maybe I would have saved some money that way.

[@penitent2401]

1. Do your research, know what kind of car you are looking for and their value. 2. Where possible take your time looking for the car you want, visit and test drive say each weekend over few months until you find one you want. Don't fall for the boiler room tactics of salesman, the ability to walk away and shop around is a powerful advantage. 3. Don't tell the salesman your exact budget at the start, say it depends, then when settling on price only then reveal your budget and stick to it. They often can come down a bit to match your number or if it's too low for that car then 90% of the time they got an identical or very similar one with slightly higher odometer number or one year older. Don't be afraid to say you'll think about it and research it up or compare with online listings and come back the next day or walk away if it isn't what you want. But be realistic, do your research.

Don't finance with a dealer. Use your own bank. This way you'll have a chance to go over the purchase with your own lender. It gives you a chance to rethink the deal and the "acceptable financing" clause is your way out, should you have cold feet. You must be adamant that you are taking the purchase agreement to your bank, do not give the dealer permission to run your credit. Even better, no financing, but make sure you have the numbers solid in your head and remain intolerant of any diversion from your assessment of the vehicles.

[@matjan0944]

Not entirely true. I've had many customers with pre-approvals from their bank where they clearly are being taken advantage of with a high interest rate. So I educate them and ended up saving them a ton of money by letting me work the lenders against themselves to see who is the most aggressive to earn their business. Banks are banks, they are going to try to make as much money as they can off everyone. Especially long time customers that don't shop around

That would be something you should disclose after selecting the car and before filling out any credit applications or going to an F&I office.

Any allocations out for the 2022 2ss 1le yet?

Yes. I already have two orders.

@@forthekids9482 I am a salesperson at the dealer, they’re orders I took from customers. They both are accepted, but haven’t been built yet so no VIN’s. TPP on one is this week and the other is 12/6. Have not received any allocations recently tho.

@@coleg5578 thanks👍🏽... is the 3-4months timeframe they told me sounds realistic to you? Already been 1 and half lol

[@coleg5578]

@@forthekids9482 depends on when they get allocations and if you’re first in line for them or if there are orders in front of you. Once allocations are received it usually takes around 2 months for an order to be built and arrive.

If it’s recent you are correct. Carmax has been offering more than carvana. I run 30-40 vehicles per day through them.

What about them adding to ur trade to get a better deal which would need to be mentioned at the beginning

[@ChevyDude]

if they are "adding" to your trade that is a scam number. You want to work everything separate. We deep dive into that inour System at AutoCarBuying101.com

I work for a dealership in texas. Went to this guys website and pulled vin/miles for JD Power trade in book values. That's the number the banks loan money off of. He is consistently 3k higher than the market. Guy is a fraud. Got out of the dealership to say he is going to do right by people and he is screwing each and everyone of his customers. What a joke.

[@Harlowsimms99]

Should you get per-qualify with a bank before you look for a car? Will this help out in the long run?

[@ozjohn8657]

YES!!! Get pre-qualified!!! The dealership will add a percentage to the APR you qualify for as profit. When you tell them you qualified at a lower rate they will match that rate. It’s just another game they play.

Because a lot of people buy cars from his dealership and he sells them for MSRP. He acts like he’s the good guy but honestly you can pay less than MSRP. Invoice is the starting point.
