• Also make prior arrangements to get your car insured. Compare insurance rates/coverage and avail discounts and competitive offers on deductibles.
• Make sure that you have a proper driving license. If the current license is waiting for renewal get that renewed right away! Shopping for a car would be absolutely futile without a certified driving license. Well if you can get hold of an IADC international driver license then you can drive your brand new beauty in any part of the globe!
• When you set your mind on buying a particular car it’s better that you gain a detailed knowledge about each and every aspect of that model on your own. You must not let yourself be ruled by the semi-true/false information offered by desperate car dealers or salespersons.
  There are several highly acclaimed car magazines and journals featuring varied information about different types of cars. You will surely find related information about the car you want to buy! The Internet has made your car-shopping task a lot easier. How about clicking on the numerous car-related websites?

• Decide whether you want to go in for a brand new car or a used car taking into consideration both their advantages and disadvantages.
• Go in for a test drive. You can test drive several cars at a time thereby you can compare their performance and efficiency. Comparison of prices is also essential, as you will always want to buy the right car at the fairest price. You also need to look for genuine and certified car dealers/salespersons who will not take you for a ride!
• While shopping for a car negotiating it’s price with the car dealers can be quite a bit stifling! But you have to indulge in it whatsoever if you want to strike a better car buying deal with the over ambitious salespersons trying to make profits! Always start the price negotiations from the invoice price and not the MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price)!
• Check out the warranties on your new/used car before buying. There is a standard warranty and an extended warranty term on the purchase of most new cars as well as in some used cars. Get these terms straight with the car dealers.
• Beware of dealership add- ons, after-market add-ons and finance department add-ons! These are simple profit making techniques by desperate car dealers, financers and such people that can cost you heavily if you are not careful.
