If you want a pleasant experience, and you have your financing in
order, you can use the Internet sales department of good dealers.
My son bought his first new car (a 2006 Corolla) from a dealer in

We flew up to Philly and the dealer met us at the airport, drove us to
the dealership, and delivered the car.
Very Very Pleasant....
