New or used? Used or new? Some people opt for new because they cannot compromise on their car – little do they know of the hidden repercussions of doing so. Some people opt for used only because it saves them money; clearly, they are unaware of so much more.
Used cars offer you more than just money saved. We at Queens Auto Mall, serving Queens, NY, recommend a used car because of the following reasons no one talks about.
In Terms of Value – Used Cars Rule!
When buying a used car, you are foregoing all other high costs like high depreciation and insurance. As we all know, depreciation is high when the car is new; it goes down over time. Insurance is always high on riskier items due to potential theft or accidents – new cars.
You don’t need to pay all these high costs on top of the price of the car itself.
Au Revoir, Paperwork
Paperwork is associated with pretty much every purchase you make. With cars, though, there are a few detailed forms you need to fill. Not a fan of paperwork? You will not get to do much when buying a used car. Most of the paperwork for the used car you are about to buy has been filled already. You might have to fill some secondary forms, but your dealer will take care of those, too.
You Can Negotiate More Confidently
You can negotiate the price of the car down because the car is used. If it’s a new car, there is not much room. No matter how great the shape, used vehicles are still used. You can put your numbers on the table and take them up with the dealer. However, sometimes, some cars have barely been used before being sold back to the dealer. You can tell that, too.
We would recommend being reasonable with the price on these.
Performance-Wise, Used Cars Do So Much Better
A car needs to spend some time out on the road before achieving that high speed we all want. A new vehicle would be starting from scratch before it can be that fast and perform well. Whereas a used car has already been down so many roads – it is speedier than when it was new and performs better.
You Can Get a Sales Tax Exemption on A Used Car
Do you live in a state where there’s no sales tax on resale? If so, you won’t have to pay sales tax on your pre-owned car. You need to think about this if you want to save money on a purchase.
