What is the process to buy a used toyota at a dealership?

Have bought and sold many cars over the years, but this is a first to buy one at a dealership. Have one picked out that is certified and a good price with low miles and good carfax.

After the test drive and we make an offer.....

once we decide on a price, (we will be paying cash/bank check) with no trade in. Please tell me the process. Will I get the title at that time? What would be a realistic time frame for the process. I do not think there will be much haggling cause the price they are offering is the very best I could find with the low miles. I think their location being sort of out in the country is part of it. Maybe a lower overhead. WA state. Thanks for any helpful answers. We plan to buy this weekend. It is a long drive so it will need to be completed in one day, shorter time is better if possible.

You also should compare car insurance quotes for cars before buying one, for example here - carquotes.fateback.com

The simplest way to buy a car is pay for it all at once. The dealer will do all the registration and licensing. Don't forget to buy insurance as soon as you have a chance. When I bought my 98 Corolla, I gave the dealer a cashier's check for the agreed price and drove the car away with everything taken care of. You might try negotiating through the internet sales manager at the dealer. That usually gets you a better price than the guys haunting the showroom, who will eat you like vultures. After you finish dealing with the internet sales manager, go to the dealer and pay. Make sure everything you agreed on is what you're getting before you leave. You should be driving your new car an hour or so after you get to the lot with your money.
