How do you buy a Toyota?

What's the best way to buy a Toyota? My friend said I could buy one online. I don't know how to do it, but I'd love to do it from home if I can.

While you can buy a Toyota in person—just like you would with any other car—you can also buy them online! Follow these steps to buy a Toyota:
  • Step 1: Decide which car and color you want. Consider your choices carefully, and remember that the car you buy will partially determine your
    car insurance rate
    !
  • Step 2: Select a payment option. You can either choose to pay for it upfront or finance it. This is also where you’ll need to pay the holding deposit—but don’t worry, it’s fully refundable.
  • Step 3: Collect your car. You’ll need to stop by the dealership for this part, but all you have to do is pick up your car! Once you’re there, they may ask you to sign some final papers—but it should be quick!
If you’re trading in your previous car to buy this one, make sure you transfer your insurance policy. If you don’t, you may end up paying extra for a car you don’t even own!
