Buy Use Car Knowledge Base
How can I buy and use the car in LA and CA when I'm a foreigner? I'll be visiting CA this summer for 3 months (tourist visa) Having no car is not an option there. Renting for such a period would be expensive (but if there is no choice I'll do that) so I was wondering if I can buy one. The problem is that I won't have permanent residency and Social Number. I do have international driving licence and more than 25 years:) I was thinking of buying car between 1500-2500 usd. And selling it for 500-1000 usd cheaper at the end of the stay. Regarding legal things I was wondering is it is possible to do same thing as in my country. Buying car, not formally changing the owner (plates+registration), buying necceserry insurance and use it as it is. But I'm really not sure if it can work out. Of course I'll send questions to rental comapanies for special prices for such a long rental. This seems to be muuuch easier.

What is the better option - to take a company car, or use the allowance to buy a used car? Hi, i live in the UK and have been offered £4800 gross p.a. for a car allowance. I'm trying to work out what is the financially better option - to take a company car or to put the allowance and what i can claim through business mileage and the relief i would get through not paying a company car tax, and purchase a second hand 3 Series or something equivalent with 50k on the clock for £10,000. I have seen lots of calculators on the net to calculate the like for like equivalent between company cars and leasing the exact same car as new, but i don't want to do that - i would look for something second hand. Can anyone help me try and work out how to go about beginning to calculate this? Thanks

If I buy a car that use to run good but was parked for 2 years, what problems should I expect? I am looking at buying a 1997 standard Diesel Jetta with 260,000 km. According to the owner it use to run great before they parked it and left it for 2 years, they moved it around through the years though. My car now is not doing great so this car is super cheap, about 1700, said it runs good now and starts good every time. Also the body needs work to pass safety apparently. What problems should I expect from this car?

I have an open unsecured biz line of credit. Can I use it to buy a car for my personal use? I originally used the credit line to buy into a business. I have since sold my share in the business, paid off the loan in full and the credit line has remained open. I would now like to buy a car (that has nothing to do with the business). The interest rate is low and it would be easier to use the credit line rather than having to get a new loan. Are there any rules or restrictions to do this?

If you buy a car used from an individual or dealership, can you get monthly payments for it? Hello, I am young and have had no experience buying used cars, I was wondering, if you buy a used car from an individual, do you have to pay it all up front or can you pay in monthly payments? If you buy a used car from a dealer can you pay in monthly payments or do you still have to buy it up front? I am asking because I cannot just plop down 15 grand or so then and there. Thanks!

How do you use ebay motors to buy car? I've been browsing ebay motors for car prices. I really don't understand the bidding method for cars. Most have a reserve price that isn't listed so how do you know when you're over or under bidding? Any bidding advice would be great. I'd like to save money but I can't quite figure out the method. There is also a buy it now price that seems to be what the buyer wants you to pay. That price is usually quite high. So how are you actually saving money? ANY bidding advice would help. Also, please share experiences if you have them. I'm still a bit skeptical..... In regards to the reserve, how does one know when the reserve has been met and what the price was? I don't understand how you get good footing with this thing? so does ebay motors actually SAVE you money or just the hassle of dealing with those wack jobs at the dealership?

Should i buy a classic car & use as a daily driver? I'm thinkin of sellin my 1999 eclipse & buying a 1979 Trans Am. I love classic American muscle cars.

What should I be concerned about if I do this? Insurance? Gas mileage? Repairs? Anything else? Should I do it?
Can I buy a car using my credit card? I thinking about buying a car 20grand out the door max. I dont want a lecture on credit please. 1. One is to buy car and put it on my credit card. Can this be done? Do dealership take credit cards? 2. I have really good credit and get these blank 0% APR until, lets say July 2007 all the time. I can use these for purchase or deposit it in my bank account but it will be treated as a cash advance and has a max fee of $90. So if I write a check for $10,000, there will be a fee of $90. So I was thinking of writing the check to the dealership or myself. When July 07 comes and interest rate kick in, I would transfer that balance to another credit card with 0% offer. So overall I pay 0% interest and all I lose is about $90 in fees, and my car will probably be paid off by the time the promotion period ends.
What website would I use to buy used cars? Right now, I just cars.com, autotrader, and craigslist, but I would like to have more search engines to find used cars, as none of the sites have any decent offers at this time. Preferably, I would like to buy from an individual seller rather than a business as the prices are generally lower. Any help would be really appreciated!

Is it right to use merit scholarship money to buy a new car after you have graduated (and landed a good job)? A student I knew chased after every single merit scholarship they could get, right up to graduation, then used that pile of cash to buy a new car after they graduated and got a good job. They did not need the car to get to school. They did not need the money for books or tuition or living expenses. I did not think that was right. To use scholarship money to buy a new car after they graduated seemed like they were taking money away from students who may have really needed help for school. Was what that student did ethical?
Would you rather use an auto broker to buy a car? Brokers do all the research/negociating for you. I want to start my own business and this what I want to do. The customer just makes an appointment, tells the broker what they want and we bring everything to them (including test drives). The car is delivered directly to the customers house or place of work. The customer doesn't have to deal with spending 3-4 hours in a dealership, or going from lot to lot looking for what they want. It's one stop, no haggle convenience....
Can I use a student loan or financial aid to buy a car? I will be starting college this fall. There are several things that I need (not like want or think i need but really need). Things like clothes, shoes, and a bookbag are the main things. But I really need a car. There are ways for me to get to school other than my own car but they are not practical on an everyday basis. My financial aid is paying for my tuition completely. I was wondering if i could take out a student loan for about 4,000 to cover the costs of getting a car, paying the 1st 6 mos of insurance, and buying some clothes. If so, is it possible to do with NO credit (good or bad) and no cosigner? if so, please let me know where...
Is it possible for me to use my sister's credit history/background to buy a car? I've recently immigrated to the US and I am hoping to have my own car but I am still establishing my credit history. I am in California while my sister is in Michigan, but I already asked her if she can help me with it and agreed. But what we don't know is if it is possible to do so even if she isn't here with me and do the transactions herself. So, is it possible? How do we go about it? Hoping to have an idea before I go to a dealer, so, anybody...help?
Why would someone buy a brand new car and not use it? My next door neighbour has bought a really expensive brand new car and from what I've seen of them using it, I think it's only on their front drive for show! they have a really old ford fiesta that they use for basically everything and since they bought this car it's hardly been used, seems a shame that it's just sitting there rusting away, why would someone buy a car and not use it? xxxx

Any comments would be appreciated! Thank you :)
What GPS can I buy that I could use both in car and on the golf course? I am looking to buy my fiancee a GPS for her birthday. We also love golf and have considered getting a GPS for golfing alone. That said, is there a GPS out there that could double as a "most of the time" in-car GPS system and then could get pulled easily from the car and put into our golf cart at the course? Price is not a huge object (though I don't have an infinite budget). The main feature is the in-car GPS, but I would love to get one that could be used on the course as well with pretty widerange course map support. Thanks in advance!!!
Can you buy car insurance the very moment you buy a car? Do insurance companies work that quickly? Can I phone an insurance company the instant I buy a car and say, "Hey, I just bought a car. I want to get insurance for it."? I think companies should do this because if I take off from the dealership without insurance, and somebody hits me on the way home, I'm in trouble, right? I looked everywhere for this information, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Could somebody clarify this issue for me?
