In our current economic situation, it is already a good decision if you buy yourself a used car rather than buy a new one. This is not just according to the economy, too. Even if you’re not tight on your budget and can afford to buy a new car, you will find that most used cars are better than the new ones. This is because used cars have undergone repairs and improvements that they can perform better than the new ones.
Searching For the Right Used Car: The first step you take in buying a used car is planning on what kind of car to buy. People usually already have an idea of what they want their car to be. But it would also be wise to expand your options to other types of cars.
Focus on how you want the car to be and from there think of the different kinds of cars that would fit your description. Start with the general descriptions of the car like the size, the number of people it can hold, even the color if you want. Then you look up on the kinds of cars that fit well with you general descriptions.
From the general outlook, you can then go deeper into specific details – engine, horsepower, hybrid, etc. Find out the details about the cars on your list then hold onto the ones that fit your dream car the most. You should also take a good look at the history of the used cars you’ve found when car shopping.
Money Talks: The next thing to think about after you’ve settled on your list of potential used cars is financing it. Make sure you can afford to buy the used cars on your list. If one of them goes beyond your budget then you’ll have to let go of it.
There are three kinds of payments that you have to consider when you buy a used car: the monthly payment, down payment, and the purchase price. In choosing a car, you’ll have to consider these three to not make a mess of financing for your car each month. Consider how much you’re willing to pay as down payment and if you can meet the monthly installments.
Testing Before Closing the Deal: Before you say yes to a deal, it’s recommended that you study the chosen car’s history again. Inquire about the repairs and improvements made on the used car. Take it for a test drive, too, and take a feel on how compatible the car is with you. Comfort is part of what you should look for in a car.
After testing it, and after considering its history and the price, you can go on with the negotiations and finally close the deal. Don’t forget to go through the insurance process for your car. Dealerships usually have the finance and insurance process.
You might not have the newest car on the block. But buying a used car gives you the knowledge that you’ve somehow made a great deal and have efficiently saved some money.

Buying new is sometimes doubble the cost of a slightly usted used (same car) with miles in the teens. Buying a barely used vehicle is WAY smarter. Go to
http://www.autotrader.com or
http://www.cars.com & you'll see them like half the cost than a new one. Let the first owner of the vehicles your looking at take the big deprecation loss not you!
It really depends on a lot of factors, including luck. Generally it's best to buy a slightly used vehicle since technically nobody owns a "new" car. The second you drive it off the lot it's used. You can find a car with 20,000 miles on it for a few K less than a "new" one.
I have a friend that purchased an old Integra with 103,000 miles on it for $4,000. He now has 267,000 on it and has had no major issues at all. There are tons of examples like that which throw out the idea of having to buy a new vehicle. Generally speaking, smaller lighter vehicles with small engines last a lot longer than larger ones.
no
Autotrader.ca is a good source….
Two dealers that I have dealt with before that are decent service and great prices are:
Dixie 401 Automall (especially the Daewoo), and Focus on Value at Keele close to the 401
That's why you let the professionals do it. Never purchase a used car without having a certified mechanic do a complete mechanical inspection on the vehicle.
As a consumer you must run a VIN check on the car (Carfax, Autocheck) and you can visually inspect the car for cleanliness, rust, dents, broken parts or pieces. You can look for signs of wrecks or repairs, check the tires inspect under the hood for worn belts, hoses and dirty fluids. You must also take the car for a good long test drive to check it out on the road. Include some highway miles during this test drive and turn OFF the radio so you can hear the car. Make sure you check all of the electrical switches and interior components to make sure they finction as they should. Look under the car for leaks. Your focus needs to be on determining how well the previous owner cared for the car. If they took really good care of the car that's a good sign. If the car looks abused or neglected you need to take that into consideration but you have to look well past the new wax job, the tire shine and the recently shampooed carpets.
The most important item is the mechanical condition of the car and the only way to do that is to have a professionally trained technician perform a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
I think edmunds.com is a good resource, it helps you compare things and usually has a lot of spec info. Also, when you think you have it down to a few cars you’re interested in, look for forums on that vehicle. For example, search “4runner forums” and see what 4runner owners have to say, what problems they’ve had, etc. A lot of different vehicles have forums full of owners – and who knows a car better than someone who’s been driving it for years?
You'll save lots of $$$ actually. Just be sure that what you are buying isn't a piece of junk and that you're getting your cash's worth.
all major city's will have dealer auctions within range so it really does not matter where you go.
however for you to ask the question tells me your a little green about what your trying to get accomplished, 2 main factors come into play.
1 ) If you plan on public auctions where you pay more and its a bad risk factor its not a good idea, if you have a dealers license its 100% secure getting value.
If you want to apply or find out details how to obtain " google " dealer licence vehicle California.
2 ) subject to where in the middle east you want to import there will be regulations as to model years allowed to import, make sure you know what you can or cant import. good luck
check out this link on my site for a better understanding about auctions http://www.usedcartips.org/AUCTIONS.html
They both pull information from the motor vehicle departments of all states. I do know that carfax gives a financial guarantee that the information is accurate.
