Car Price Negotiations

If you haven't shopped for a new car recently, be prepared for some sticker shock. The average new car price these days is in the mid-$30,000 range (that's as much as many of today's grandparents paid for their first home). To make sure you are getting the best deal possible on your new car, consider using Consumer Reports New Car Price Service or The Fighting Chance New Car Buying Guide. Consumer Reports New Car Price Service and The Fighting Chance New Car Buying Guide provide the new car buyer with valuable information not generally offered by the dealer (not otherwise readily available upon which to base your negotiation). *You can learn more about Consumer Reports service on its Web site. Fighting Chance offers its guide as a downloadable PDF from its Web site.
