This gives them a strong message that you are serious about your research. You should also bring a piece of paper to the dealership and make sure you do all the math of the finance calculations yourself. The point is not that they will do the math wrong. The point is you will see exactly how the deal is structured. Do not be afraid to take the time to do this or look like a fool for mapping out your car deal in the dealership.

We seriously looked at the Yaris, but ended up buying the Prius for the EXACT reason you went for the Jazz. It was more roomy and got BETTER gas mileage. It has been the BEST car we've ever owned. Congratulations on your new car! I would make you take me for a ride in it if we were on the same continent! Are you coming to SXSW this year? We’ve been really happy with our Toyota.

Congratulations on your new car! I would make you take me for a ride in it if we were on the same continent!
