Car Buying Process
The Car Buying Process at Toyota Pasadena

Overview
Buying a car is certainly easier today than it has been in years past. Some people imagine a very convoluted and difficult buying process, but nothing could be further from the truth. It’s much easier than people think, and involves a fairly straight-forward step-by-step process.

Step 1: Research and Budget
The first stage is to consider what type of Toyota car you want and how much you can spend. It’s a rich and varied marketplace, so consider first your needs and which Toyota model will best be able to cater to those needs.
Step 2: Visit Toyota Pasadena
Once you’ve selected the Toyota vehicle that suits your needs, visit Toyota Pasadena and browse our inventory. We have a wide range of trim levels and models for each vehicle we offer. Toyota Pasadena is always happy to help you find the vehicle that suits your needs.


Step 3: Test Drive
Once you’re happy with the car model, it’s time to talk price and financing options with Toyota Pasadena. It’s great that you can do all of this in one place without the hassle of dealing with multiple parties in your purchase. First, you’ll have to decide whether you want to be on the path to owning the car outright, or take the leasing route. We offer both finance and leasing specials on our Toyota models.
Step 4: Review Price and Financing Options
Once you’re happy with the car model, it’s time to talk price and financing options with Toyota Pasadena. It’s great that you can do all of this in one place without the hassle of dealing with multiple parties in your purchase. First, you’ll have to decide whether you want to be on the path to owning the car outright, or take the leasing route. If you know you only need the car for a fixed period, then leasing is helpful, but if you’re getting a family car for longer-term use, then regular financing is better.

Step 5: Introduce Your Trade-in (If Applicable)
If you have a vehicle to trade in, Toyota Pasadena will be happy to appraise it and discuss options that can help reduce the amount of your monthly payments by trading in your current vehicle.


Step 6: Complete the Deal and Collect
After all that, the only thing left to do is sign on the dotted line and then collect your vehicle when it’s ready. It could take a few days depending on what kind of options package you have requested, and the brand of car that you have chosen.
