In the movie To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar, Patrick Swayze and the girls need to buy a car for a cross-country road trip. “Substance or style” is their dilemma. The girls ultimately choose style, only for the car to breakdown in small farming town where Stockard Channing lives. Hilarity ensues.

Indeed, if you buy a used car for all the wrong (read: “style”) reasons, there won’t be much hilarity when you find yourself shelling out thousands of dollars to fix what the seller promised was already fixed. If your issue is concerning a broken windshield replace it here.
Few people can afford a new car these days, so you have to wonder just who is buying a Lamborghini (Jay Leno) or those funky new small cars with all the bling (not me). Given that all new cars lose up to 20% of their value once they’re driven off the lot, it makes sense to consider a used car, especially if it’s for your grown children, PFLAG mom, or the life partner you’re not sure you’ll keep until Labor Day.
How not to punked at the lemon lot? To protect yourself, there are a few things to keep in mind:
- Once you’ve handed over the cash and accept the title, the car is yours — and good luck returning it if defective. Even with dealer brokers, getting your money back may not be possible. Read the fine print.
- Private sellers can be as high-pressure as dealers. Everyone should always car shop with a friend who is more removed from the purchase.
- Do you really need “style”? Unless you’re dead-set on a classic car or you’re a great mechanic, used cars should be practical and affordable. Your “style” money is best used on you, not your transportation.
- No matter what you buy, it’s still a crap shoot. That’s just how it is, but consider this: you took a chance and came out of the closet. Buying a used car such as this 1933 ford coupe for sale, will be much easier. Read For More Information - https://bit.ly/2So7ZIi
