You’re driving down the highway and see a brand new Mercedes-Benz, your dream car. You let out a little sigh of sadness. You’ve always wanted a luxury car, but brand new vehicles are out of your price range.

Now, there’s a luxury car, the Hyundai Genesis, that provides you with the reliability you’ve come to know and love. And if pricing is a concern, a used version is quite affordable.

If you’re looking to buy a used Hyundai Genesis, this guide can help you get the best deal.

Budget and Finance

The first thing you should do when car shopping is set a budget. Knowing how much you can pay helps narrow down what you’re looking for. 

You don’t necessarily have to pay out of pocket. You can get a loan or financing that fits within your budget. 

It is important to know how you will pay for your car before you start shopping. If you don’t have your financing lined up, you could pay more than necessary in interest rates.

Once you have your budget and financing figured out, it’s time to find used cars for sale. You can look for people selling cars or check out a used car dealership.

Inspect the Used Hyundai Genesis

Once you’ve found a used car that you are interested in, it’s time to look at it a little more closely. The first step is to get a vehicle history report. This report will tell you about things such as repairs and work done on the car.

You’ll want to take the Hyundai Genesis on a test drive to see how the car functions. Does it drive well or make strange noises when you apply the breaks? Is the interior in good condition and suited to your comfort?

Seeing a vehicle in person can help you determine if it is a good fit for you.

The next step is to have a mechanic inspect the car. Choose a mechanic that does not work for the dealership so that you can get an unbiased opinion. This inspection may cost some additional money, but you want to be sure that you know if there are any problems with the car.

You’ll want a mechanic who understands the car parts of a Hyundai Genesis. Learn more about the car parts of a Hyundai Genesis. 

When the inspection comes back, it is time for price negotiation. If the mechanic found any problems during the inspection, you can use this information to get the price lowered. 

Some people find negotiating an uncomfortable experience. You can make this less stressful by knowing the Kelley Blue Book price of a car. Having the inspection information will also help you determine a fair price.
