    We bought a brand new Honda in Yucatan, it was a laborious process compared to the U.S. We paid a combination of cash, cashiers check and credit card, they wouldn't accept an all cash payment. . Our Honda was a few thousand less than a comparable US model. It took a few days before our car was delivered. We also had to have proof of valid residency and a utility bill in our name (which we didn't have but the salesman took care of that). The salesman also went with us to register the car. Its a whole different process than what we ignorantly expected.

      Wow, strange that they didn't want all cash. Nice that the salesman helped you through the process, though. Thanks for sharing!

    We bought a Mazda in 2017 and decided to sell it recently. We went into our documents to the title and didn’t have it. So we when to the dealer to get a new one. They said it would take a week. When we went back they said we never picked it up 7 years ago. They had it in their files for 7 years.

    Hope everything goes well with your new car. You will see lots of not good reviews, the main one is spare parts and reliability but don't let it put you down i was told the same for my truck that I bought new back in 2005 is 2024 and I haven't have no problems. Good luck make sure you keep the car insure

    After watched some of your other videos and this one again, I just realized you’re based in Zihuatanejo, but why do you need to buy car in Querétaro, which is 500km away? you would need to drive 7 hours back, or a whole day? Do you have videos of driving it all the way back to Zihua? 🎉
    Is it because Zihuatanejo lack of good auto dealers? and if you’re willing to drive 500km for buying auto, there are many other choices like CDMX, or Morelia all look like closer in that range?

      All of the Chinese brands are in the same range, starting at 300k MXN for the cars to about 600k for the "higher end" SUV's, on average.

    Can't register new ones in the US due to inferior safety standards.

      We will drive carefully, but I think the current 28% tariff doesn't help. They are sold in Australia and throughout Europe.

      ​@@MexicoMattandAli yeah, simply because MG and BYD both are cheap China car manufacturers for inferior quality. the Tesla is still too expensive for majority of Mexicans 💰😤 also current Mexico does not have good electric charging network, isn't ready for pure electric 😢
