Research on line. Find one you like and drive it. Go back to any car search program on the internet. Find the one you want, put your contact information in. Dealers will be contacting you from all over the state with their deal and free delivery to your local dealership. Know what you should pay ahead of time and it will pay off.

I have found that, anytime you have a car shipped from another dealer, you need to pay a deposit. I would only buy a car that I can actually see on the lot. But, if you do pay a deposit, make sure that what you sign clearly defines the car with a VIN number and a copy of the official Government window sticker and that the dealer cannot substitute another vehicle. I have seen two friends get ripped off because the car they thought they were buying was not the car that was delivered. Typically, the dealer's deposit form will allow the dealer to deliver a similar, but different car. And, once you pay a deposit, you will NEVER get the money back.
