How do you plan on purchasing a new car?

How do you guys plan on purchasing a new car? I read this blog recently, that talks about how you should actually plan for it. 5 Tips For Buying A New Car | Kevin Thatcher Seriously speaking, I only plan on how to purchase my favorite car. I never measure the actual travelling needs. However, budget is something that I always keep a check on.

Napangiti naman ako ako rito...

Malaking problema ngayon ng isa kong dating kasama sa trabaho... Bibili siya ng Toyota vehicle [FJC],- cash....

Sabi ng Toyota essentially,- "our vehicles are not being sold on cash basis"...

Ayos! Malaking problema nga naman!!!

Not planning at all. I will buy when I need it and when the cash is ready.
For my last two buys, it is because my other cars are undergoing repair.

Medyo nag summarize lang yung article.

Pwede pa bawasan to just 2 questions for yourself...

1) Need versus Want - ask yourself do you really need it or if you just want it?

2) Your financial capability - will you be able to shoulder the running costs? Pms, registration, insurance, fuel, parking, toll, unscheduled repairs, monthly ammortization etc.

Dyan pa lang sa dalawang points na yan pwede mo na malaman kung kakayanin mo to get one and madami ka naman mapag tatanungan

first satisfy the "want". the "need" can be taken care of later with another purchase.

and don't worry about cost. never let the neighbor know you eat tuyo morning, noon and night by keeping the windows closed.

1. Need

2. Budget: acquisition + maintenance + sell-ability (not necessarily resale value. I just want to be able to sell it easy enough when i want to and not have it languish in my garage)

3. What can i do with it (aesthetic and performance modifications)

Hi there!

I'm planning to buy my first car. I used to drive our family car before but I really wanted a car of my own. In a few months, I'll be able to purchase the new ***y Honda Civic RS Turbo. However, I saw 2nd hand cars on this particular website and there were 2010-2013 Chevy Camaro that is on sale for about 2m. Ford Mustangs as well. There are tons of Toyota 86 or Subaru BRZ, 2010-2014 model as well, which is cheaper compared to the price tag of Civic RS Turbo. All well mantained and low milage.

I just want to ask if it's worth it to buy a 2nd hand luxury/sports(idk what to call them) car?? Or should I stick with the RS Turbo?

I don't know how much is the annual maintenance cost of the 2nd hand cars that I mentioned, like gas, insurance, etc.

If anyone can enlighten me with this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

good points!
the problem is, many of us do not know how to accomplish them.

e.g.,
confuse "want" for "need".
over-estimate your financial abilities.
mis-understand "financing options".
"why you need/want a car in the first place"?

and last, "where do i park it?"

Review your budget and find out how much you can afford as a monthly payment if you plan to take out a loan to help pay for the vehicle. Once you know how much money you have in your budget for a car payment, there are online calculators you can use to estimate how much car you can afford. It's smart to stick to the lower end of what fits comfortably into your budget to avoid problems making your loan payments over time.

not fishy to me.
more of, down-playing "deceptively easy".
excited buyers un-intentionally over-estimate some savings and under-estimate some expenses.
as someone already said here, "the easiest part in buying a car, is bringing it home".

Not this year... Probably not, too, next year.... even if our youngest has his eye on a couple of brands/models...

Unless the company persuasively insists...

How do you plan on purchasing a new car?

The old school way, by saving up for it. Only using the money left over from all of my financial obligations and without using any of my investment funds.

I started saving for our current ride 5 years ago. LoL.

Oh, resurrected pala yung thread.

[Painter12]

I didn’t have any plans, because I got a new job and the place was far away from home, so I bought a car.
