It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s your first, second or fifth time, it still fills you up with butterflies in your belly. You can finally drive home that dream car you\u2019ve been eyeing for weeks, or maybe even months.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But something that\u2019s not always talked about is how the whole car buying process can actually be very trying, especially when you reach the viewing stage. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are 3 reasons why the car viewing process can be so troublesome!<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>1. Inconvenient Locations, Inflexible Scheduling <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13061\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/erik-mclean-bCJqNVaKL7k-unsplash-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/b><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the biggest pains of visiting a car showroom for viewing is its inflexibility.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scheduling an appointment to view the car you\u2019re interested in can be super troublesome, especially if you\u2019re someone with a packed schedule due to work or family commitments. So, sometimes, finding time to head down for viewing may seem hard to schedule.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This also puts you on the back foot when buying a car as you\u2019re at the mercy of time. If you don\u2019t act fast enough, the car you\u2019re eyeing might be sold even before you get to view it.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, car showrooms are always situated at inconvenient locations like Leng Kee or Ubi. So if you don\u2019t live near these areas, you\u2019ll have to make a long trip down.<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>2. Uncomfortable and Pressurizing Proceedings<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13009\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/pexels-gustavo-fring-4173194-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/pexels-gustavo-fring-4173194-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/pexels-gustavo-fring-4173194-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/pexels-gustavo-fring-4173194-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/pexels-gustavo-fring-4173194-1-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You walk into a store, the sales staff greets you. You smile and politely tell them that you\u2019re just looking around, hoping that they\u2019ll leave you alone. But he continually keeps an eye on you\u2026 Yes,\u00a0 I know they\u2019re just doing their job, but doesn\u2019t it just feel uncomfortable when this happens?<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, when viewing a car, the salesman will be with you throughout the entire viewing. This puts unnecessary pressure on you and can make you feel uncomfortable. Sometimes you just want to take your time and be alone while viewing or inspecting the car.<\/span>\r\n<h2><b>3.

There\u2019s no way for anyone to go around it because, at the end of the day, you\u2019d still want to physically view the car before making a purchase.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But now, there\u2019s a new alternative available for car buyers!<\/span>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Introducing CARRO Anywhere, a first-of-its-kind concept that brings the car showroom to your neighbourhood.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CARRO Anywhere is a new concept that offers a contactless car showroom experience where you can flexibly view cars at your own convenience and time.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13012\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/0Z3A5027-1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You won\u2019t have to travel far and wide to get to a showroom, be tied down by inflexible schedules or worry about your safety.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, all you\u2019ll need to do is visit your heartland mall at your convenience, and view and inspect the car when on your own -- no pressure.
