Default How do you choose a car

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to make the decision of choosing a car easier for potential buyers.
We're just starting out and don't have anything to sell, but want to
make sure we're building something that actually helps.
I've only ever come at it from my perspective and I'm having a hard time
understanding how it all works from the owner/customer perspective.
I know you are passionate about cars and could really help me cut
through the fog.
Do you have time to chat?

Thank u

What exactly are you asking? Not sure if I'm being thick but I don't quite understand the thread?

Are you starting up a car dealership business and you want some sort of questionnaire/question sheet for potential buyers to help yourself identify what type of car they are looking for?

What an extremely odd first post. You do know that this is a forum for Subaru enthusiasts?

Hi mate and welcome.

You should have said deciding on which Subaru to buy, you'd have had a 10-pager then.

Anyway, do you mean:
  • the types/models of car available for their preferred lifestyle ?
  • the types/models most likely to appeal to their social category ?
  • some way of working out best vfm (taking into account depreciation, maintenance etc.) ?
  • Something else ?

I can't really think of any problems or needs as there is already so much out there on the market in terms of parts availability, upgrades and extras, etc. Obviously you have all the same problems associated with any other relatively fast performance vehicle.
