通想啲人都建議月尾出車會容易啲講價，但買之前你都要格吓價，行多幾間，問吓可以攞到咩價錢，但問吓就好，唔好真係 commit 去同佢講價住。

當你有返幾家唔同嘅 offer 揸手，咁你就有足夠嘅資料去同 dealer 講價。講價果陣，最緊要記住嘅就係你自己要「輸得起」。買家最大嘅本錢就係你可以起身 walk out 唔買，而你唔敢 exercise 你呢個權利嘅話你就一定會買得貴。所以你話走嘅時候真係要敢走、肯走先至得。走嘅話記得留返個電話號碼俾個經紀，如果佢果邊有位走嘅話，佢過兩日一定會 call 返你轉頭。

當然，人地做經紀都要食飯，所以你講價亦都唔可以過份，一定要知道見好就收，如果唔係就變咗啲最無品、專門殺人價唔使本嘅衰人（我都費事特別指出邊啲人成日都有呢個陋習，費事果啲別有用心嘅人又話我 bias ）你買車係求個合理嘅價錢，而唔係要屈人蝕、屈人賠俾你。

師兄睇中邊部心水 Toyota？如果係 Corolla/Matrix 嘅話，其實我會建議你買過第二架。今時今日嘅 Corolla/Matrix 實在並非 market competitive。呢期嘅 Honda Civic 亦如此。

如果周圍問完價，見大多數dealer都企得幾硬嘅話，問佢攞 accessories 一般會容易好多。屋企咁多年來，幾架講唔到／無乜點講價嘅車，都攞到MSRP大概$400 - $800嘅原廠 accessories。有 friend 仲勁，講完價 on top 又再屈多接近 $1500嘅 accessories，我真係唔知佢點解可以咁犀利。

另一樣其實都好簡單嘅就係，如果你肯從車行嘅現貨裡面來揀車，咁相對地又會容易啲講價，特別係啲冷門啲嘅顏色。

Silver and gray are definitely the most popular colour. Green is not very popular at all.

Have you considered the Fit and the newly facelifted Mazda3 at all? The Fit is a little smaller, but the magic seats make the cargo area extremely flexible. The new Mazda3 with the 2.0L SkyActiv engine is really good on gas, but I am not 100% certain if that engine is available in the hatchback at the moment. If it is, that would be a better choice than the Matrix.

If I buy a 1 year old car from a car rental company, will I still get factory warranty? Such as powe ...

Rental cars get beat up to death. They are usually relieved of fleet duty after logging 20k - 30k km, but the amount of abuse the engine has seen means you might as well consider the mileage to be a good 2 - 3 times higher.

Additionally, you wouldn't want to know what gets found in the filthiest rental returns. I've worked at car rental company for my summer job back in the day, and it never fails to amaze me the kind of crap their cleaning crew have to put up with, and the amazing cleaning job that they do day-in, day-out.

C Hing,

Only those rich mainlanders buying Mercedes, Audi, Bimmer, etc. would go into the dealership with piles of cash and pay MSRP la. There are normal, non-rich Mainlanders as well, and many of those are the absolute stingiest people you'd see. With normal cars, they'd even bargain back and forth over an extra $100 to no end when the negotiated price is already quite cheap.

C Hing,

You are living the good live when a $50k-60k car is "just and average car". For the majority of people, I think the $15k - $30k range is the average car. Heck, some people never buy new cars for one reason or another la.
