Dealers often try to sell you extras such
as rust proofing, fabric protection, and paint protectant, or push etching your
Vehicle Identification Number on windows to deter thieves.
请结合以上情形,与下面的建议进行匹配。
When buying a car, keep your interests front
and center--and avoid common pitfalls(缺陷)that can cost you extra
money--by following these tips:
A. Don't assume that the sticker price(标价)is the purchase
price(买价).
To get the lowest price, go in with a
starting price that's based not on the sticker price but on how much the dealer
paid for the vehicle.
A reasonable price to start negotiations is
either 4 to 8 percent over what the dealer paid or the CR Wholesale Price, depending
on the demand for the model.
B. Do your homework.
Thoroughly research your choices. Read a
variety of reviews. Check the reliability, safety, fuel economy, and pricing of
any models you're considering. And don't wait until the day you plan to buy to
test drive the vehicles. If you have a trade-in, know its approximate worth.
That will depend on the vehicle's age, condition, mileage, and equipment, as
well as where you trade it in.
C. Negotiate one thing at one time.
Make clear that you want the lowest possible
mark-up over your starting price. Add that you intend to visit other
dealerships selling the same vehicle and will buy from the dealer with the best
price.
Only after you've settled on the price should
you discuss financing, leasing, or a trade-in, as necessary. Negotiate each
item individually. Remember, you're in charge and can leave at any time.
Heading for the door can sometimes jump-start a slow-moving negotiation or
bring a lower offer.
D. Don't pay for extras you don't need.
Don't accept those unnecessary services and
fees. If the items are on the bill of sale, put a line through them. Vehicle
bodies are already coated to protect against rust. And CR reliability surveys
show that rust is not a major problem with modern cars. You can treat
upholstery and apply paint protectant yourself with good off-the-shelf
products. You can also do your own VIN etching with a kit that costs about $25.
E. Other costs.
In addition to the vehicle price, you need to
consider other costs, including: Sales tax ; Registration fees ; Insurance
premiums
Taxes and registration fees can increase your
out-of-pocket cost by as much as 10 percent or more, and driving a car that’s
worth more than your current one will cost more to insure. Be sure to check
with your insurance agent or get insurance quotes online so you understand what
you’re getting into.
F. Arrange financing in advance.
Compare interest rates at several banks,
credit unions, and loan organizations before checking the dealer's rates. If
pre-approved for a loan, you can keep financial arrangements out of the
negotiations. Automakers may offer attractive financing terms, but make sure
you qualify for them.

第一节 基础写作(共1小题,满分15分)
请根据以下要点用英语写一篇短文。
59.
The salesperson may try to sign you up
for a higher rate than you could get elsewhere.
58.
Salespeople like to mix financing,
leasing, and trade-in negotiations together, often asking you to negotiate
around a monthly payment figure. This tactic(策略)gives the dealer more
latitude to offer you a favorable figure in one area while inflating figures in
another.
57.
The dealer invoice price is commonly
available on Web sites and in pricing guides. But the invoice price isn't
necessarily what the dealer paid. There are often behind-the-scenes bonuses(幕后红利), such as dealer
incentives and holdbacks, that give the dealer more profit margin.
56.
Many dealerships prey on the unprepared.
Going into a showroom “cold”--without having gathered key facts and preliminary(初步的)pricing
figures--gives the salesperson too much control over the buying process.
54.
