My car buying experience here was just about the same as anywhere else you would go.

Inquire about the vehicle and ask the best price, and get hounded about when can you test drive it and all that happy garbage.

My issue was how my car was when I did purchase it and go to pick it up.

1. the car was taken to the car wash to get cleaned, and was still wet even when I picked it up. they were nice enough to fill the gas tank though..............
2. I was told that the radio was XM capable. Checked the other day, and turns out, NOPE!
3. there wasn't any carfax or history reports on the car. it was a govt vehicle in the Dominican republic. that being said, I noticed that one headlight was yellowed, and the other looked brand new. considered it having been in an accident, but the body looked fine.
went to trade my car in recently, only to be told that the vehicle had clearly been in a major accident and was repaired, and that any competent garage worker could tell that. So either the people that inspect the vehicles aren't competent, or they decided that it wasn't necessary to disclose this information (which yeah would have hurt their chances of selling the vehicle), but having known that, I definitely overpaid for this car.

was not satisfied with the overall experience, and would be hesitant to go back for another vehicle.
