Default Re: Negotiating a New Car Price -- Your Stories.

I got referred to a car broker from the independent car financer that I used. I have done this twice, with two different brokers and I will never buy a car another way.

In both cases the guys were self employed & this is all they do - find cars for people.

All you have to do is go to the dealership they do the deal with and pick up the car. Dealers I know do not like these brokers. In both cases I saved thousands and saved heaps of time.


To anser another question re: cash sales. From what I gather salesmen don't really care - they want the sale. If you are dealing with the owner of the business you may fare better with cash & you may get two receipts.

In one place I know the salesmen were getting better commission from the F&I guys (Finance & Insurance) than they were from their own boss. So a lot of stock was sold 'at cost' as long as the F&I deal went with it. Until the owner realised what was going on. No margin in nothing.
