Ordering a car from the factory does not have to be daunting! The key to success is doing your research and knowing what you want before walking into negotiations. Every tiny detail affects the amount of money you will invest in your build-to-order car! Here is how to conduct negotiations with your dealership to get your dream car!  

How to Order a Car From The Factory

When approaching the build-to-order process, there are a few things that you should keep in mind before negotiations with your dealership and placing your order: 

Do Your Research 

Before starting negotiations, decide on the specific model, trim level, color, and extra features that you want to add to your build-to-order car. These factors will affect your vehicle's price and the offers you will receive during negotiations. 

 

Also, have a general understanding of the current market conditions and how they will affect the cost of your car. Every dealership has to make some profit, but make sure that they aren’t grossly inflating the price from its current market value. Comparing pricing with other cars on the market is the best way to get the best deal. 

Get Every Detail From Your Dealer

You must be hands-on during every step of the ordering process and get all the essential information from your dealer. For example, ask for the time frame of your delivery date and the point you can back out if necessary. You do not want to end up in a situation where you have no room to change your mind before it is too late. 

 

Know what will happen to your deposit if you return and inquire about the documents you should receive once the order is in progress. Understand every term in your order contract to be aware of any extra charges or fees that may come up. Deposits and additional fees can add up over time and could make or break your decision when deciding where you will order your car. 

What to Keep in Mind During Negotiations

You should always begin with your lowest base offer. If you start with a lower transaction price, you will have a better chance of getting a fair deal because it will be the most similar to the average sales price. Try not to go above the lowest competing bid. If you receive a fair offer within your budget, accepting it is your best bet!
