A few days ago I purchased a car using an excellent car buying service in the Bay Area called Roadster. For a fee of $295, they find the car you want at the price you want and deliver it to you. No need to visit a dealership at all. (Delivery qualifier - they don't come all the way to Sacramento, so I took a train to Fairfield and met a Roadster Rep at a Starbucks, signed the papers and voila! I was on 80 West in my new car).
I had driven the model I bought, a Nissan Rogue, for a week when I rented one when I first returned to the US. I loved it. It sits high off the ground and has most of the features found in larger SUVs, but in a smaller package. It was good on gas, too.
So, I knew what I wanted. Searched online and found the options I wanted, and from those searches had a pretty good idea of what it should cost.
I purchased my last car online as well and absolutely loved the experience. This was in 2004. I kept that car until 2011 when I left the country. I sold it to CarMax and that was a painless process, too.
Anyway, as I've mentioned before, I should be in sales because when I find something I like, I want the world to know about it.
So . . .
If you or someone you know is in the market for a new car and you're in the Bay Area, I highly recommend Roadster.
