Understanding Subaru Finance Driveaway Pricing
Posted: Jun 26, 2017
We all like the idea of buying a new or quality used car and enjoying a brand new driving experience. There are many great offers available, that will help you to finance that purchase, but it is important to do your due diligence. Not every deal is created equally, and some are not as good as they may appear to be. One way to avoid this issue is to use an authorised car dealer and Subaru finance. However, it’s a good idea to read the fine print on any deal that involves drive away pricing.
The Truth Behind Bargain Prices:
A drive away price may look good for a limited period of time whilst a promotion is being carried out. However, simply being a drive away price, doesn’t necessarily mean that the deal is a good one. In fact, many car manufacturers actually save their best bargain prices for set times of the year to clear stock and reach bonus sales targets. Some less reputable dealers even gouge their customers for more money by not publishing their real drive away prices. Some of the terms used could be: free on road costs or massive factory bonuses. All this means that the deal on offer could be better and some dealers are hiding their better deals.
Don’t Be Timid When Buying a Car:
For many of us, hard haggling and negotiating skills don’t come naturally. In fact, as the customer, you have all the power to spend your money where you wish. If you act too timid, some dealers will take advantage, and you may find that you don’t get the discount that you should have. You may find yourself leaving the dealership with your car and encountering buyer's remorse later. It would be even worse to buy a car and then a short time later, notice that the price had dropped significantly. To avoid these kinds of issues, you must understand that the buyer has all the power to negotiate and walk away if the deal isn’t good enough.
Don’t Be Too Cynical:
Bearing in mind the topics covered up until this point, it would be easy to be cynical about buying a new or used car. In fact, that’s not the case at all, and there are plenty of reasons not to be too downcast. Firstly, the car industry in highly competitive and if you’re not happy it’s easy to go down the road and find a better deal. The car dealer knows this any they want your business, so be cheeky and see what happens. Secondly, many more reputable dealers are up front with their prices and they don’t get involved in this drive away discount pricing nonsense. Finally, as more people wake up to these kinds of practices, market forces will determine, which dealers prosper and the others will fall by the wayside.
