Car Loans And Other Means Of Payment

Will I save money buying a car with cash?

With regards to financing your car, you might be able to save money by buying a vehicle in cash. I mean obviously you are not going to have financing costs, so it can save you there. If you decide to pay for a vehicle in cash, do not tell the salesperson that you are going to do so until very late in the sales process. I learned this lesson from shopping with my mother many years ago. She was a cash buyer and early in the process she informed the salesperson that she was looking to pay cash. The salesperson then asked us to leave; wasn't interested in because he would not make money on the financing. We then went to another dealership, didn't mention the cash price or the cash purchase until the very end of the negotiations, we were also shown the door because they had agreed to sell the vehicle to us at a price lower than he could afford to do at cash. He could only sell it at that price if he knew he was going to make money on the financing afterwards. So, cash price is a very valuable tool or a very valuable negotiation skill, but, do not let it be known in the process until the very end, and be prepared to not buy that vehicle from that dealer that day.
