how to buy a good car

Wouldn't it be better if you went to a local dealership to buy a car? I mean if you buy a car online you will have to pay extra to get the car shipped to you wouldn't you? Doesn't make sense to me. I think your best move is to use the internet to decide what kind of a car you want and can afford and then go and visit some local dealers. Get then to start a price war to get you to buy from them. Then you might get the best possible price you can.
