I'm 50 yrs old and owned a small dealership for years. Of course if your a dealer you'll go to auctions and buy cars. I've been out of the car business for some time and what this man is saying is gold. I do exactly what he said at the end of this video and have been for many years. I also set my alerts on CL and always look for high-end 1 owner cars. I almost felt as if he was giving away trade secrets but then I remembered, I don't have a dealership and am not selling cars for a living.

When you are car shopping, are u paying Kelly blue book value or are the sellers selling to you for less than book value? If Kelly book says a Hyundai Tiburon 2003 GT great shape gets $5000 but it's got 156k miles, I believe for each year, 12,000 miles is the average car miles - so 2003 average miles in 2022 is going to be about 144,000 miles on it. If the car has 156k miles, you subtract $1000 for each 12,000 of miles off the price. So, I would offer the person $4000 instead of $5000 because of the milage. Obviously, I'm going to look at other factors as well but is this an approximate method for figuring out a fair price on a car? Kelly's blue book for a starting point.

Ok so story time- My cousin, who is blonde, played up the “I’m a dumb blonde girl and do not know anything about cars” trope when she went to the dealership to get a Lexus. She did so many stupid things like open the trunk and said “Oh my god! Where’s the engine?” Or she pretend to not be able to open the door “bouncing” her Ta Ta’s the whole time in front of the salesman. When it came time to buy the car she played up the dumb blonde thing again and they offered to finance in house with this ridiculous rate. Like 20% or something in exchange they took thousands off the price for her to make it look like she got a deal. The next day she came back in her business suit and paid off the loan. THEY WERE PISSED. She is one of my favorite cousins.

Car loans are simple interest not compound interest, which means they add the interest of the total term of the loan to the principle of the loan right there from day one, divide the total amount by the number of payments and that is the amount of your monthly payment, regardless of when you pay it off you end up paying the same amount: the total principle + total interest.

Depending on what rate you get your financing, it may sometimes make sense to go with the financing for instance 0 percent (if your lucky) to say 1.9 or 2.9%, say rather than pull from your 401k or if your really savvy like me and index fund, they net between 5-10% for the amount you have in there. Your money better serves you in the index/401k, then if you were to take it out and pay cash to avoid the 2.9% (average financing for good credit).

Superb video, and you explained exactly what I did to get the best deal on a new car from a dealership. 1. Leave all options open (new/used, finance/pay cash, trade-in/no trade-in. 2. Be non-committal until the very end. 3. Negotiate the PRICE OF THE CAR ONLY until you agree on a price; then finance it for one or two months, and then pay it all off after 2 months. This is absolutely the best way to get a great deal on the car (finance manager thinks you are financing the car and gives you a break on the price, then you pay it off in 2 months so you don’t have to pay exorbitant interest rates). Another thing: never start negotiating the price on first visit to the dealership. Most of my car purchases happened over a period of 4 or so months so they knew I was serious; and I usually bought at the end of the month so the dealership was incentivized to sell in order to reduce carrying costs of the vehicle over another month. Yet another thing: always have a holdover comment to use as leverage (something you honestly don’t like about the vehicle in question - but don’t absolutely have to have). You can use this for leverage when negotiating price. For me, it was style of wheels, or a particular feature they didn’t offer which other dealerships (or vehicles) did - could be something as simple as rear heated seating, ventilated front seats, or wireless charging option. All these things (plus trying not to show too much enthusiasm) will help you to financially negotiate the best deal. Again, thank you, Marko, for a superb video!

In that way, you still pay cash; just not to the dealer.

@@JulesTrades When you pay cash there is no interest fees. When you finance there is interest, and dealerships make money off that interest. When you tell them you are financing they are more flexible with the price of the car as they know they will get the money back on interest payments on your finance. When you tell them you're paying cash they will not budge on the price as you are not making them any payments after you take the car.

It is. KZbinrs are under pressure to create unique content, hence they tend to put forward attention grabbing titles or advise. If a dealer offers you a sale price based on the assumption you are going to require finance and you change it at the last minute saying you will buy in cash, he can change the price. There is nothing to stop him from doing it. He can simply say the first price was based on financing and now that it's not needed, the price will change. It happened to me. So you must be ready to work away.

When buying a car from a private party your first question should be "Is the car registered in your name?", followed by "Can I see the title?". You want to make sure the person selling the car owns it and it isn't a salvage title. In my state AZ, it's also important to buy a car with a fresh emissions certificate since you cannot register a car without it and emissions repairs can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Most people, especially the well to do, will trade their cars at the dealership because they do not want the hassle of selling a car themselves. If you trade a car in you do not pay sales tax on the trade in value. You can cancel your insurance on the trade in immediately (instead of waiting until your old car sells which could take months unless your giving it away), you do not have to worry about maint. on the old car. You do not have to carry the license on the old car if you trade, You will have to finance more if you do not trade. You could be dealing with bad checks, counterfeit money or people that do not switch the title (which means you have liability). You do not have to advertise, take phone calls, give people test drives. Selling a car privately is a hassle.

@@vincentvincent4898 I am not a car salesman, but I have sold my own cars from time to time privately. These days a lot more dishonest people than in the past (bad checks, counterfeit money). The last time I sold a car was 7 years ago and I held that car 7 months before I found a buyer. I had to put new tires on it to make it marketable. Anyone that does not 'give' their car away will have trouble selling it. And if you are going to give it away you may as well trade it in and save yourself risk and hassle. The last car I sold 7 years ago I got $3K and the dealer would have given me $1k on the trade in (real number). So a lot of people would have not gone to the trouble for that amount of time and money. And if you are older a lot of people think they can screw you over. You seem to be looking at this from a buyer perspective, getting a used car cheap. But even you are at risk buying from a private party as they could give you a counterfeit title, forged title, etc. More extreme cases could be car jacking and mugging.

I'm mechanically inclined, too. I know how to work the lever on a La-Z-Boy recliner like no one else. This is a great video not just about car buying, but about negotiation tactics. As a former car salesman (lot lizard), car dealerships exist purely to get you into a shiny new loan. The car is secondary. Most of a dealership's money is made in the used car lot. New cars have very little margin to work with unless you add on all the stuff Marko talked about in the video. I agree with the techniques in the video UNLESS the dealership (or the bank backing it) in any way get additional loan-related finance fees that would be avoided by simply paying cash at the purchase time. Personally, I'd rather just make them wait until the end of the negotiation, after a price has been settled, to tell them, Colombo style, Oh, yeah, one more thing, I'm paying cash. Also, NEVER EVER buy new unless you're rich and you are totally able to take that immediate 25% depreciation hit.

This situation is similar to my last car purchase. After we had negotiated the final price, the dealer informed me they would reduce another $500 if I financed, and told me pretty much what Marko explained in the video: pay one or two months, then pay off the loan with no early penalty. They must have used a 3rd party for the financing, and I now would assume the $500 was their commission from that party for originating the loan. However, I did pay about $100 in loan costs, so I didn’t save the entire $500.

But he gave me his card. In this case, I think I may be able to still end up paying 25% or 30% below their sticker price. I dunno. The truck may not even be worth that because the oil was low and the dashboard messages indicated issues. I didn't have my code reader on me to check the truck's computer codes. I am technically unemployed, buying equipment to begin my own business. And my wife and I have been approved for a first-time homebuyer loan. So, we think it's best I don't try to finance anything else at the moment, since my credit is bad right now; and I need build it back up. Maybe I can put the truck in her name...

Depends on how long you intend keeping the car. In the UK people are obsessed with PCP lease deals. Lower monthly payments because part of the cost of the car is deferred to the end of the agreement as a balloon payment, but most trade them in because they can't afford the final amount. This is particularly true with the so called premium brands, BMW, Audi etc. Our roads are filled with them yet nobody owns them. Its all about image these days and people would rather lease so they can get the another shiny fancy badged new model in a couple of years. I prefer straight Hire Purchase, its a lot simpler to work out and the salesman or woman can't baffle you with any of it. You pay more a month obviously but at least I will own the car at the end. You tend to find if someone needs to get a car on PCP, it means they can't really afford it. Its like renting a car. What a waste of money.
