Ten Tips for buying a car















Comments
Great advice except for the $5000 mark-up. Used cars at most lots have $3000-4000 mark-up. New cars have much less margins than that unless you figure in rebates with this figure. Thanks for your car buying advice.
i don’t agree with number 4, i think if you want to buy some accessories make sure that you will buy the accessories that you realy need...Plasticolor products are one of those...
