I would like to buy a car online; however, I would prefer to build my car. Can you recommend any online sites for buying a car?

The Drawbacks of Building Your Car Online

For the auto enthusiast who wants to build their car from the inside out, manufacturer auto Websites are the best recommendation.

On the Internet, manufacturers will allow you to choose options to reserve special features. Then prices are acquired via e-mail quotes from local dealers. There are a few drawbacks associated with buying a car from a manufacturer's auto website:

- The consumer does not have an analysis of the car's features compared to other manufacturers

- The car buyer does not have a way of conducting a cost analysis with other dealerships

- Price negotiations must be made through the dealer
