Q: Where is a good used car dealership is austin, TX?
I need to buy a sedan car for under $5000 that I will pay for in cash. I have been looking under craigslist but not that many car have been for sale on there. I want to go to a used car dealership that it fair priced. I live in Austin, TX. thanks all!

A: You know most car lots with used cars are untrust worthy and cars are in bad condition. Try major car lots for their trade-ins they usually won’t sell a car if it won’t last 10 years and offer some kind of warrenty and there repairs are usually gauranteed. For five thousand you should be able to walk away with a good car and you would deal with the best professionals and know who your buying from. So maybe try contacting them and see if they have used trade-ins you could purchase.

Q: Used Cars Dealers For Senior Citizens Austin TX?

A: It’s normally much better to get good used vehicle from a NEW Car Dealership than buy a car from a used car lot.

Q: Which are the best certified used car dealers in austin, TX to buy a used Honda Civic?

A: If you want a true “Honda Certified” Civic, then you must go to a Honda dealer.

I dealt with all three in Austin at one time or another. First Texas Honda was, in my opinion, the best. They never pressured us, had an excellent service department, and a decent selection.

Q: Where in Austin Tx is the best used car lot for bad credit?
I need a reliable used car. I have bad credit and little to put down. Need a vehicle asap. Help!

A: 1) If you are living in Austin, they have a fantastic bus system with routes that go just about everywhere in the city (It’s also free to people taking courses at the community college there or at UT). If you are traveling beyond Austin, renting a car may prove cheaper (if it is a short trip) or else taking Greyhound.

2) As to used car “lots” you might find a better deal off craigslist.com or ebay.com (motors). New car dealers will often sell used cars but they tend to be higher priced than buying from individuals. The local papers in Austin frequently have a classified ads section listing used cars for sale.

3) If you do go to a dealer, remember to haggle, and also remember you will pay significantly more for having bad credit (instead of a 3-7 % interest rate, you may pay closer to 20% — making your car that much more expensive).

Q: Any good car dealerships around Austin, TX?
Hi there,

I moved to Austin, TX and I am planning to replace my older car later this year. What is a good new/used car dealership around here. I’m probably looking for Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Mitsubishi dealerships.

Thanks

A: Try Carmax, when I moved to Houston that’s where I bought my car

Q: I’m buying a mitsubishi eclipse used car. Which color would cost me the least?
Assume that I have a few cars with exact same features but they all differ in color. Which color would be the least expensive and which one would be the most expensive?
I am in Austin Texas.

A: Color should not matter at all since both are used. What should matter is the condition of the paint and the car in general. Some cars come out with a special edition only paint or a one of a kind paint in their car line up. Those cars usually cost more. A white Eclipse will be cheaper compared to a sunset pearlescent pearl colored Eclipse. Limited Edition paint jobs…yes they cost more! Other than that, it should not really matter.

Q: Planning to buy a Used Honda civic or Toyota Corolla in Austin – tips please?
My budget is 7000$ and the car should be no older than 2000.
The mileage should be less than 130000 miles.
1) Should I go to a dealer? If yes, which ones are good?
2) Should I buy from an individual? If yes, are there any classifiedes sites I can look?
3) If I buy from an individual, what checks do I need to do to ensure the quality of the vehicle?

A: You will get a bettor price from a private seller. Find a shop that will look the car over for you and tell you if any thing is wrong. The private owner may have records showing when the oil was changed if a timing belt was changed etc. Look for a car owned by a family not some kid. It won’t be beat on as hard. You can eye ball a private owner and tell if he/she takes care of there stuff or not. Either car is a very reliable car. The thing is find one that has been taken care of.

Q: Where can I exchange Euros into dollars in the Austin area?
I went to Germany about 2 years ago, and I don’t anticipate going in the near future so I thought it was time to exchange them and use them for college or a used car.

A: Too bad that you waited this long to exchange them. The Euro is much stronger now against the dollar than 2 years ago. Most banks exchange foreign currency. You should be able to find one close. Trying calling your bank.

Q: what do you call the text effect used in that 70’s show and austin powers and pimp my ride?
the one where the text follows a certain pattern like a car or a van. just like the one found in scooby doo. actually, the exact effect used in writing scooby doo’s name.

A: Bell Bottom Laser?
The site has tons of that sort of style.

Q: What is a nice neighborhood/apartment complex near UT (Austin) with no car but willing to use mass transit.?
My sister just accepted a fellowship at UT (Austin) and needs to find a place to stay. Neither of us know much about TX. She does not have a car (she’s always lived in large cities with good mass transportation systems). Can anyone recommend neighborhoods she should focus on that are safe, diverse, and an easy commute (by mass transit) to UT?

A: Hyde Park is a good place to look, it’s close to campus (easy bike ride distance) but is still a nice neighborhood and many buses run through it.
Here’s a good map of the neighborhood:
http://austin.smallplanetguide.com/rentals/index.php?p=hyde_park_austin_neighborhood
I wouldn’t call it “diverse”, but it’s a nice neighborhood.
A good bet would be to check out the campus bus lines and see what areas they go. They don’t service the whole city, and the regular bus system has a lot of dead zones, so watch out for that. If she’s not planning on getting a car for things like grocery shopping, entertainment, etc, she’ll want to be closer to the center of town where there’s more stuff in walking distance and more buses that go many different places. And avoid the East Riverside area – there’s lots of campus buses that go there, but it’s not really a nice area (although it is more ethnically diverse than Hyde Park).

Q: In Austin Texas, can you get around fairly easily without a car?
I’m moving to Austin from a very small town (i.e. we have no public transportation at all). I have never ridden a bus (besides a school bus), or used the subway or a taxi cab or anything like that. How difficult is it to get around Austin without a car? I’m not afraid of walking or riding a bike to get where I need to go….it’s just that when I move I probably won’t have access to a car like I do where I live now. Thanks for the help.

A: There is public transportation here that is pretty reliable and nice w/good A/C (cheap as well, but I think they are raising the fees sometime in the future) – but it is pretty limited. Make sure you live somewhere on an active bus line if you’re not going to have a car, because the buses definitely don’t go everywhere. It’s possible to live without a car, but it’s not desirable since the city is so spread out and nearly everyone who lives here does have a car.

Check out http://www.capmetro.org/ – they have all the routes listed with maps and a trip planner where you put in the starting and ending addresses and it will tell you what buses to take and when.

Q: ok i put down 5 grand for a used car but no longer needed the extended warranty…?
well they sent the amount to the wrong bank…well that bank then sent us the check for the refund amount and now the used car dealership that we got the car from is now asking for a check from our back for that refund amount for they can just take that amount off the car…why cant i just keep the check? U kno? We did put down 5 grand and made every payment on time its not like we are not gonna pay them. I think we should be able to keep the check….do any of yall know what the standard policy is for this situation? Do i have to give them then check back to decrease how much i owe on the car? cant i jsut keep it? I hate these guys!!!! If you are in texas and in between san antonio and austin DO NOT buy any cars from the RANDY ADAMS DEALESHIP!

A: To make the contract legal the money has to go the right bank if it went to the wrong one it has to go to the right one. You keeping it is akin to stealing sorry mistakes happen.Its like trying to pay the electric bill and you send the water bill money as well just because the electric company refunded it to you does not mean you don’t still owe the water company. Also there is not a 3 day return policy in Texas.
