Buying a Car Online vs Dealership

Benefits of Buying a Car Online: Save Time

Two of the major benefits of buying a car online include saving you time and energy. When you shop for a car online, you can do so in your leisure time. Along with that, you can take all the time you want and need to decide whenever it is most convenient for you to do so.

At our Nissan dealership, we also offer a convenient Nissan Buy@Home option that enables you to complete the entire car-buying process online from start to finish. After you register with Nissan Buy@Home, you can enter the virtual store. From there, you can:

• Get a trade-in offer for your current vehicle, which you can apply towards the down payment on your next model.
• Compare pricing, including incentives, rebates, taxes, and fees.
• Compare your financing and leasing options, so you can pick the one that best suits your needs.

Along with that, you can save your spot and return to the car-buying experience whenever it fits into your schedule.

Benefits of Buying a Car at a Dealership: Compare Vehicles in Person

However, if you appreciate face-to-face communication and want to test drive multiple models all at once, you will want to head to the dealership. Before you arrive, you can explore our inventory online and read our vehicle reviews and comparisons, so you have an idea of the models you want to explore in person.

One of our customer service specialists will show you around, answer any questions you may have, and set you up with test drives for your top choices.

Enjoy the Benefits of Both: Virtual Car-Buying Tools If you want the best of both worlds, you can use our convenient virtual finance tools before visiting our dealership. To begin, you can use our CarFinder form. Once you submit your contact information and details about the type of vehicle you want to drive, one of our team members will send you an overview of all the matches we currently have in stock.

Then, you can fill out our secure finance application and use our payment calculator to compare monthly car loan estimates for your favorite models. To get an estimate for your trade-in, you can head over to our Edmunds MyAppraise trade-in tool.
