Good advise on how to buy a car without getting taken to badly. Keeping your excitement level as low as possible is important. I always start off with saying I'm also considering their biggest competitors model and say I can go either way and will buy whatever is the best deal. The fact is though while I might buy a new car/truck maybe every decade or so car sales people are selling cars every day so I'm always at a big disadvantage and no matter what they say- the dealer is making money in several different ways I'm not even aware of.
I'm traveling to Modesto or about a $130 uber ride to pick up my GR Corolla for sticker next week. Even better Amtrak gets me to a 7 mile radius of the dealership for $20.
i just purchased a 2022 wrx premium with 7,192 miles for 32,470.44$ with paint matched fenders and rear bumper its was listed 29,975 so i paid just taxes on top for my area clean bill of health all the way around and still 2 years on the bumper to bumper from factory car was originally purchased in 2023 so maybe a year on the road for 7k miles how do you think i did was it a good deal
