Steps to buying a new car:
• Selecting a type of car to meet your needs
• Defining your budget
• Sell your used car yourself
• Creating your cars list
• Test drive your car
• Make an offer

Defining your needs:
Buying a new car is a decision based on specific needs, not only for future driver's but also those of the passengers: big or small, old or young who will sit on board.

Type of car
Now that you have clearly defined your budget and needs, choosing the type of vehicle will prove easier. Will it be a sedan, a minivan, small car or full-size or a sport utility SUV. The main factors is how many people you will be carrying, if you need to tow a trailer or a boat, the vehicle's towing capacity will be very important.

Two or four wheel drive drive
Find out if you mainly drive on urban roads even during winter, a front wheel drive vehicle is a good option. But if you drive on small byroads which are not always equally maintained, a four wheel drive vehicle would be more appropriate.

Transmission type
Usually, a manual gearbox proves to be more fuel efficient, but vehicles equipped with manual transmissions are not appreciated by city commuters.

Safety features
The safest vehicle with traction and stability controls, side and curtain airbags, expect to pay a few thousands more.

Power and fuel economy
The engine selection will impact your vehicle's performance and fuel economy. Fuel consumption increases with the number of cylinders and the weight of the vehicle. Automakers are offering more and more hybrids cars that use a combustion engine and electric motor. Their fuel consumption is reduced and they produce a lot less greenhouse gas emissions.

Warranties
In general warranty is good for three years or 60,000 km. Some manufacturers will also cover your power-train for up to five years or 100,000 km. Then there are specific warranties on the engine and others that cover rust damages. Some automakers also provide roadside assistance without any additional cost.

Insurances
Find out insurance premium you will have to pay. The amount will be based on the type of vehicle you will have purchased Some vehicles are more coveted by thieves, why some insurance might require that you equip with a satellite tracking system. Dealers can also offer a replacement value clause for few years. This type of coverage is also available at your insurer.   Check new car insurance rates go


Defining your budget:
Before you start shopping for a new car, find out what your purchasing power is. What part of your monthly revenues can you spend on the purchase or lease of a new car. Factor in all the expenses like insurance costs and fees.

Road test
Plan your test drive, ask for exact model you're looking to buy, make sure you get comprehensive description of the vehicle. A 30 minute road test will allow you to make a fair assessment, drive as much in the city as on the highway.

At the car dealer
Negotiation, make an offer, be rational. Remember once a contract is signed, you are bound usually from three to five years.

Tips how to get a great deal from car dealer

Arrange for financing before you go to buy a car. Talk to your bank about getting a car loan, use your personal line of credit, or better home secured line of credit. You'll probably get a better deal. Remember that dealer makes a commission for selling financing packages.

Have your set price in mind. Do not expect dealer will lower car price when you ask for a better deal. Make an offer for the car. Let them know that you've done your research, compared car prices, consider taking your business elsewhere. Keep in mind that dealer is making a commission on the sales.

Find out how long the car has been sitting. If the car has been there for more than three months, the dealer will be more anxious to sell it quickly.

Be assertive. Take a friend or family member who can help with the negotiating. Make it clear that you are looking for the best possible price on the vehicle.

Don't fall for immediate deal. When dealer says that their price is only good for that day, and that they have plenty of other people interested in the vehicle, this is just a sales tactic, to make you think that you are getting a good deal. If you aren't comfortable with the price, just say so.

Shop during the last week of the month, and in moth of Septembe or October. Dealers need to meet a monthly quota and may be more likely to agree to a lower price. If a car manufacturer sets a goal to sell all cars by the end year, they more likely to sell you the car at a lower price.
