The next step to do is to go for a test drive, and try out the car. Only if you are comfortable driving it, and handling the same, also happy with the features that come with it, should you make the purchase.  When you visit a lot, you might find some other new cars that you had not noticed, which might be better suited for you. So, make sure to spend time looking around and gathering information about all the models available.
