Apparently you're shopping for an Acura and that's one point for you because Acura makes great cars! Step one is complete. You've chosen your make. Step two sometimes gets lost in the jumble of options that are available to potential car buyers. There's so much to figure out that you tend to get stuck without figuring out anything at all!
The natural step Two is to pinpoint your preferred model. Decide which model suits you the best and stick with your decision. It's not as easy as it sounds. There are several available models and they've all got their high and low points.
When deciding upon your preferred model, you've got to make sure that the model that suits your needs falls within the limitations of your personal budget. You should be able to afford it easily (or at least afford it period!) If you have no idea then throw together a simple budget. Before you can know what you can afford you've got to know what you're already spending.
Experts suggest that the "suggested" amount to budget towards a vehicle would be 20% of your net income, but defining a budget specifically for your own needs works the best. You might find that you can rearrange your spending to accommodate your new car purchase easily.
You need to choose the model that fulfills the MOST of your needs and wants. Don't settle for too little. There are many, many options out there. Find the one that suits you!
Four wheel drive? A great sound system? Extra seating? DVD/Navigation system? Outline your needs and wants clearly in writing before you head out shopping and then separate them into two columns: needs and wants. Get as much of your list fulfilled as you can on the budget that you've given yourself. The more you're willing to look; the more likely it is that you'll find the perfect vehicle!
