5 out of 5 stars This book will save you money!   January 8, 2005
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

In a sense I'm also writing this review for several friends of mine who have bought the book and found it extremely helpful as a prepration for shopping for a car. The information, tactics and strategies proved to be right on for both me and my friends. We all saved money with this book. As to a previous reviewer who said the "fax" ploy doesn't work. Well it sure did for me. I suspect he's a car salesman.


5 out of 5 stars This book saved me [a lot]   December 4, 2002
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

First of all, this book was written by someone who sold cars for a living and you get the "inside" scoop. So inside, that when I went to buy my first new car ever, as the saleman's banter was taken chapter and verse from the pages. I used every resource suggested and every response suggested by the author and, as a result, paid [substantially] less than the lowest price I was offered by groups like AutoFinders. Not a bad return for [such a small investment!]


1 out of 5 stars Don't use this book. It only helps the dealers not you.   June 14, 2002

If you'll use the advice in this book, like faxing the dealers in your area for a bid on a car. You will get the worst treatment from them that you can imagine. They will be waiting to get even with you. And they will.
The book tells you just enough to think that you'll be in control of the deal, when in fact it leaves out anything that can actualy acomplish that. Like showing them the money - a cashiers check.
This book cost me a ton of agrevation from dealers and waisted a lot of my time.

Don't make the same mistake I did of buying this book.
