When it comes time to purchase a new car, deciding what options and packages to go with can seem like a daunting task. To make the process simpler, here are a few key things to consider when you’re looking into purchasing or leasing a new vehicle:
- Have a vision of your future car’s life cycle. Consider factors such as projected length of ownership, your lifestyle, and future trade-in values.
- Consider comfort. Depending on how much you drive, options like heated seats or zone-controlled air conditioning can seem more like necessities than options. Design the car around your needs.
- Think about resale value. If you’re planning on selling your car at some point, luxury options, like automatic start, can drastically increase projected resale value. Even though you’re paying a bit more now, you’ll get significant bang for your buck later on!
Many highly sought after classic cars are those that had upgrades that cost less than $50 when they were new, but now those options can allow for a $10,000 premium when those very same cars are sold today!
