The key to getting the best deal on a new car is arriving at the dealership with the relevant information that will allow you, the customer, to be in control.
PriceQuotes.com is here to help you compile the information you need to save thousands of dollars on your new car purchase.
Since new cars are identical whether purchased in New York or New Mexico, they are a commodity. All you have to do is spend time online and on the phone with the dealers you are willing to travel to and you can identify the lowest price - and begin bargaining from that point.
Step 1 - The Information Request: Fill out the basic contact information requested in the form above, along with which vehicle you are interested in.
Step 2 - Record the Quotes: Make sure to write down and save all correspondence regarding the price quotes you receive from dealers.
Step 3 - Follow Up: Call the dealerships back and ask to speak with the fleet manager or internet sales manager -- they are not working on commission and are therefore most likely to offer you good deals.
Step 4 - Follow Up Some More: You can call all the dealerships you are willing to travel to and request that they email you the price quotes, which you can refer to as "bids" - after all, these dealers are now bidding for your business.
Step 5 - Persistence: Call back all the dealers with the lowest bid you have received. That way they have an opportunity to beat it. Don't forget to take all fees into consideration.
Step 6 - Offer Your Own Incentives: Dealers have incentives to offer, but so do you: You can offer a dealer to give them the highest rating on the Customer Satisfaction Survey that you are to fill out following the purchase. You can also promise to service your vehicle at the dealership.
Step 7 - Enjoy Saving Money and Drive Away Regret-Free: You should now have the lowest price in front of you. You should request from that bidder a statement in writing that they have the car you want, including the VIN number and price you agreed upon.
With this advice and our web site at your disposal, you become an informed customer, armed with knowledge and the more perfect market competition afforded by the Internet. You will drive away from the dealer's lot not only with the vehicle of your choice, but with hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in savings in your pocket.
