I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think my dad did all his last car buying via email on the advice of someone saying it was the easiest way to get the best deal.

So maybe just go for a bunch of test drives, tell all the sales people you don't like anything. Then do research on what you did like, find a price you can live with and email in your offer.

And all this car talk reminded me that it is about time to read up on my favorite about.com writer [link]

Jen,

I was not that brave but thank you for having gusto on my behalf.

Lee,

I was very happy with my Internet only car buying experiences - which helps if you have already taken a test drive (or better yet start the negotiations online then test drive).

Hopefully I'll be driving my current car another 4-5 years until I can get out from under more debt, but I'm thinking I might buy a Mini Cooper the next time around. My only reservation is that I've had plenty of firsthand experience with how durable and safe Chevy's compact models are.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I work in a wealthy suburb of Chicago, so Mercedes are a dime a dozen. Lots of Lexus, Audi, etc. A fair number of Bentleys, Masaratis and Nisan Leafs. Plus the occasional Tesla Model S.

Have you seen the yellow Lamborghini yet? I used to see it a couple times a year up there.

In terms of new cars, I'm enjoying my Cruze.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My buying experience with my first and only brand-new car was shockingly easy, at least my sister thought so. I decided what features I wanted, narrowed the choices down to three, checked out the prices locally and what discounts I could get, test-drove the cheapest one, liked it, bought it on the spot. Happy with it ever since.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sighhh...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My next car will almost definitely be a minivan, because I am a mom and need a mom car.
