5 Helpful Car Buying Tips
- Calculate Your Budget: Whether you’re going down the new or pre-owned route, having a feasible budget is an important first step. We recommend keeping it at or below 15 percent of your monthly take-home pay, that way there’s wiggle room for insurance, gas, maintenance, etc.
- Separate Wants from Needs:Even though you might really want that flashy new sports car, depending on your lifestyle, it’s probably not the best decision. If you have a daily commute, you probably want something with good gas mileage. If you have kids to tote around, you probably need something larger. Figure out your needs and go from there.
- Determine Your Must-Haves: When you’re looking for your next car, you’re going to run into countless lists of infotainment, safety, and design features. Determine which ones are must-haves for your next driving experience.
- Don’t Buy Until You Drive: A test drive will really let you know if this is the car for you or not. Once you’ve found a car you’re interested in, schedule your test drive at Dennis Dillon Mazda. It’s the only way you’ll know for sure that it’s a good fit.
- Stick to Your Guns: When you’re car shopping, there are so many flashy points to sway you from your purpose. Stick to your guns about your budget, model type, and feature needs. The last thing you want is to pull into your driveway with a car that doesn’t meet all your needs.
