Think over what you need from your new vehicle. If you have a long commute to work, maybe you need a model that’s highly fuel-efficient. If your family is growing, perhaps a spacious SUV would be a good choice with the future in mind. Are style and speed your top priorities? Opt for a sports car or a convertible instead. Whatever you’re looking for in your new vehicle, you can count on a new Audi to provide you with impeccable design, performance and quality, no matter what body style you choose.

The financing aspect of car-buying can be intimidating for many customers, but rest assured that the finance team here at Audi Greenville makes the process easy and stress-free from start to finish. It is important to know how much you can afford so that our experts can work with you to find financing solutions that fit your lifestyle. We recommend creating a budget beforehand (and also getting pre-approved with our online finance application). If possible, make a 20 percent down payment, limit your loan term to 60 months or less and ensure that your monthly payments are no more than ten percent of your monthly income. Don’t forget to include maintenance and insurance costs in your budget as well. Your credit score and history will also affect these numbers, so in order to get a more detailed idea of your financing options, visit our finance department and we’ll be happy to discuss them with you.

Now that we’ve explained three things you should do, here are some things you shouldn’t do. If you’re planning to trade in your current car, we recommend making sure it doesn’t have negative equity first. This occurs when your vehicle is worth less than the amount you still owe on it, and when you trade in a car with negative equity, your debt will follow you to your next loan. You don’t want to be paying off a car you no longer own plus a new car as well, so plan ahead and only sell your current model when it’s fully paid off.
