1) By showing commitment. One of the first "few questions" a sales will ask you is "Will you be buying today if the car and payments all align?" Depending on "yes, I do plan to leave with a new car" VS "no, I am still info gathering, gonna still shop around" will yield different results 100%

2) Being flexible, consider the current inventory levels at all dealerships. Having the specific car in the specific trim in the specific color will most likely not happen. There is no such thing as "a perfect car for the perfect price". Dealers are always motivated to move units, so by willing to compromise on the things that you can compromise on, and accept certain realities, smoother transactions leads to better results in my opinion.

3) Being honest, know your budget and stick to it. I already had experience where people tell me they have a $500/mth budget, but wanted to finance a $60,000 car on our longest term (84 month) with 0 down. I will tell them that is $42,000 all in (500 X 84), that includes all fees, taxes and interests etc over a 7 year term. The car they should be looking at should be low to mid 30's before fees and they get offended. I would like to tell them the car they want doesnt existing based on the budget they have. I "cant" work on a good deal if you are already too far apart to begin with.

4) Last and most important point, find Dark0821 @ OpenRoad Hyundai lool, i gib yo best price
