Product Description
In the Internet age, Edmunds.com has emerged as the foremost authority on buying or leasing new or used cars. A key component to learning the industry's insider secrets involved sending an Edmunds.com editor to work undercover at multiple car dealerships. That information, along with knowledge gleaned from countless buying experiences and numerous dealership sources, has been honed into step-by-step buying and leasing strategies. Many car-buying books give tips and advice, but this book outlines proven buying scenarios, clearly explaining the consumer's course of action in simple terms.

This complex and sometimes frightening process is demystified in a guide that covers the following subjects:
* How car buying has become easier and faster than ever before
* How to choose the right car for you
* New car-buying strategies
* Getting a used car bargain
* Avoid leasing pitfalls and getting a good deal
* Insuring your car for less money

I wish I had read this book before I bought my last car. Fortunately, my brother gave it to me and I read it. This time I saved a bundle. I also used Edmunds website to find out what I should pay for my car. It was a lot better than the other sites I've used in the past.

If you plan on buying a new or used car soon, get this book. It is the essential reference to the various elements of automobile acquisition. It is also a convenient guide to the invaluable resources of www.edmunds.com. The book helps you plan and make a rational informed decision about the various aspects of automobile ownership, including: financing, insurance, trade-in value, and getting rock bottom pricing on the actual car purchase. I saved thousands of dollars on my last car deal. Read this book, get liberated from being an obsequious cog in the wheels of the auto dealership industry.


5 out of 5 stars An essential read   February 19, 2005

Strategies is a cleverly written book that not only entertains the reader, but manages to educate them as well. In an era when so much information (and disinformation) is readily available, consider this book to be your one source as a consumer guide and consider yourself fortunate that you dont have to waste your time looking elsewhere for more content. The author is also a talented writer which will explain why I did not put the book down until I read it cover to cover. If you ever plan on buying a car, you would be wise in reading this book.

Buying a car is difficult, but this book can help guide you through the process. It walks you through all stages of the buying process, and gives great tips along the way. It is a must read before buying your next car.
