How long searching for the perfect car?
Discussion
Just wondering how long fellow PH's spend searching for a car.
Quite often see people talk about spending 3, 6, 9 months searching for a car. Wondering if that is really representative.
I'm quite particular and like to research everything. Read the buyers guides, join the marque forum, learn as much as I can about a car and that's quite often before I've even viewed one.
My last 2 cars, E46 M3 and Elise 111R I spent about 4-6 weeks in total, viewed maybe 4 or 5 but when the right car did come up, made the deal that same day.
I don't know how people spend 6 months looking, I've bought sold and bought again in that time!

Lol, guess you all get dealers looking at you strangely when they have a model in stock but you then tell them it'll probably be 6 months before you're looking to purchase!
I'm browsing XKR's in the classifieds and I'll linger and look of I see one parked but prob won't change to this time next year. Wouldn't consider it searching as such, more beginning to appreciate the model!
