Buy or Lease a Car
You can buy a car new or used from a car dealer.
You can also buy a used car from another person who is selling his or her car. In Ontario, used cars must pass a safety certification before they can be driven by a new owner. If the car is not sold with a valid safety certificate, it is your responsibility to arrange certification from a licensed mechanic. You are also responsible for paying for any repairs that are necessary for the car to pass the certification. After you buy a car (new or used), it must be registered with the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario. At the time of registration, you will also need to get a license plate. To get new license plates, visit your local Service Ontario location.
As an alternative to buying a car, many people in Canada lease a car from a car dealer. A lease is a legal agreement between you and the dealer in which you agree to pay them a fee to use the car for a specific period of time (usually several years). After this period ends, you must return the car to the dealer in good condition. Since a lease is a legal agreement, make sure you understand the terms and conditions of the lease before signing.
For information on buying a vehicle, consult the Canadian Consumer Handbook produced by federal, provincial and territorial governments at Canadian Consumer Handbook.
