Bought a new car today

[Davidson Deac II]

The last few times I bought a car, I decided what I wanted, and got a pre-approved loan from my credit union. I picked out the car I wanted, told them what I was willing to pay, and signed the contracts. Dropped the check from the credit union off to them the next day and picked up the car. When the dealer tried to discuss payment amounts I told him not to worry about it.

My Credit Union now has a car buying service, and I am thinking about trying that next time I buy something.

Well lahh dee dah

I was just joking. please tell me it was a buggatti. Ill be your best friend. Also remove the stick from your ass.

with sites like Edumnds, you know the invoice price for the car and the extras, as well as all of the dealer charges. There's no reason anyone should ever pay anything over invoice these days.

That's only the tip of the iceberg. Get into factory to dealer rebates and incentives, you can really get below invoice.

And whoever said walk out when payments come up, I agree 100%. The salesman's job is to show mr the cars I want to see. I already know my range. WTF am I answering his questions for? He's there to answer mine.

maybe you walk around with $75K in your pocket.

If I'm understaning your choice of number correctly, having $75K tied up in cars is insane for the vast majority of people, no matter what kind of 'deal' it may have been.

I thought that maybe he'd want to get a new, tricked out Z4. The weather is warming up, after all.

It was indeed a VW and the stick was on the floor. First six speed manual transmission VW offered in the US actually, one of the reasons I had to get it, I was a bit of a VW nut at the time. Aw heck I still am.

Hyundai has come a long one, I'd gladly own one.

Exactly.

I own my second one and love it....fantastic car.

Great quality....great price...great warranty.

I prefer to spend my money on more important things than overpriced cars.....like saving for my kid's education....saving for my retirement....nice home....etc

My cousin sells them at Parkway Hyundai in Wilmington and swears by them. He's a very straight shooter and from the research I did trying to help my MIL buy a new car I came away very impressed.

Count me in as someone who owns a Hyundai as well. I am in car sales and work for a corporation that owns every major car brand and allows me to get the best possible deal on any car I want.

Hyundai is the best bang for the buck out there and anyone with a clue is well aware of this.
