Car buying tips for women

Car dealerships have historically had a reputation for being less than woman-friendly. Bill Black is determined to change this perception. After all, women are just as likely to shop for the family cars as men, and are even more prone to make the final decisions. So if you're out browsing at a new car dealership in Greensboro, NC looking to snag a great deal on a new or pre-owned car, here are a few car buying tips for women. 

If you Prefer to Deal with a Female Salesperson, Ask for One

You have every right to ask to deal with a different sales person if you aren't happy. This goes for both male and female salespeople. That being said, you may feel more at ease and more trusting with a female salesperson. And that's absolutely okay. You shouldn't feel guilty at all for asking. The good news is that most dealerships will have at least one woman for you to talk to. Remember, if you don't feel happy or confident in the situation, speak up and ask for help from someone else. 

Ask for a Second Opinion

Some people are car enthusiasts and get excited reading about things like horsepower, torque, and engine capability. But for many men and women, this talk is gibberish. Male or female, if you aren't keen on keeping up with the latest in car news, perhaps you have a friend or family member who is a car enthusiast and can help you make an informed decision. The more you know about the car you're buying, the better off you are. So don't be afraid to ask for help from someone you trust.

Remember the Power of Negotiation

Walk into a dealership understanding what you want and what you're willing to pay for it. Most dealers are willing to negotiate on pricing, but there's usually much less wiggle room in the price of a new car versus used. Be firm but fair and, most of all, realistic in your negotiations. This is where doing your research ahead of time can really come into play.
