However

Hi,

I have a question regarding on whether to add 'ing' or not after however is being used.

For example:

However, buying/buy of cars are more suitable for family usage rather than indivudal usage.

If 'ing' should be used, why is it so?

Is there any problem with this sentence?

Thanks!

Cheers,

JenniferUnagi
