So, the decision was made it's time to buy a car? Great! But what next? How to make a perfect choice? What factors should be taken into consideration before taking a final resolution? Lots of questions need to be answered if you want to be happy with your purchase for a long time and consider it a worthy investment. Here are some for you to think about:


Fuel Economy

Usually the engine's size directly affects the gas mileage of a car, thus an auto with a smaller engine and less horsepower promises more fuel economy. For even more fuel efficiency you can choose an electric vehicle or a hybrid car – that will influence the environment the least so that's also a factor of importance.



Price Dilemma

It's one of the most significant factors in making a purchase of costly things, like cars and property – think carefully about exactly how much are you going to spend – what amount can you afford to pay? Set a limit for yourself: defining a budget ensures that you won't spend a ridiculously large sum that will make you bang you head on the wall when the car fever passes. Setting a price limit will also narrow the circle of suitable vehicles, making the search easier.



Luxury Features

Modern car makes offer us more and more luxury features each passing year. Today's cars can boast many characteristics that would be considered a miracle several years back and which the older models can only wistfully dream about. Before making a final decision make sure you know all about the comfort features that are accessible today – like heated seats, navigation systems, keyless ignition and Bluetooth availability – they really do make the ride so much more pleasant!



Car's Holding Capacity

In other words – how much room is there for the driver and the passengers – is there enough space to accommodate all your family members? You have to consider the number of passenger's seats, the sufficiency of the legroom and so on. Think it all through beforehand to relish the ride afterwards!



Trunk Space Matters

How do you plan to use your car most of the time: for rides to work and back or for long distance trips? Or maybe transporting a lot of cargo on a regular basis is what you have in mind? Think about it and you'll realize what trunk size you need and that will help you immensely in the car's choosing process!



Safety Comes First

The newer car model is, the more safety features you will likely find in it. Anti-lock brakes, side airbags and stability control, review cameras, parking sensors and collision alarms and many others are available on the new cars today. Which matters to you the most? Which would you care to have? If safety is an important issue for you and your family you can always consult the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's crash test scores to help you define the most preferable car model.



Transmission Type


side airbags, stability control, bugatti


There are two types of car transmission known to the mankind: manual and automatic. And while autos with manual transmission cost less and are generally more responsive, they can also be more difficult to drive. Is the challenge accepted?



Operating Costs


review cameras, parking sensors, car cost


Operating costs or maintenance expenses for automobiles include gas, oil changes, alignment, tires replacement, brake fluid, car washes and insurance costs. Some car dealers offer a regular maintenance on certain car models, such as free oil changes for life. Tempting? You don't say! Deals like that can bring the operating costs down, so that's a factor to keep an eye on!
