IRVINE, Calif., July 9, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Buying your first car can be a daunting experience. Many people are uncomfortable with price negotiation, and most often haggling is still a big part of the auto purchase process. First-time buyers also are confronted with a wide array of possible choices, a car, a truck or an SUV; whether to buy or lease, how to finance and where to buy. As a first-time buyer, this is uncharted territory, no wonder the thought of buying your first car can bring on a headache.
