Set Your Budget First

You have many exciting Mazda vehicle options, but you don’t want to fall in love with a car only to learn it’s outside your budget. It’s best to set your budget by checking your credit score, which can impact the type of vehicles available to you. Consider using the 20/4/10 rule, in which you put down 20% on the day of, take out a four-year term, and spend 10% or less of your monthly income on transportation costs per month.

Do Your Research

It can be overwhelming to narrow down which vehicles are best for your needs, but it’s worth your time. Consider what kind of vehicle you want, what amenities it should have, and if you wish to buy one that’s new or pre-owned. In addition to researching cars, you’ll also want to explore your loan options to find the perfect fit.
