Read through it so you're able to put a game plan together for when you go shopping for your new mode of transportation.
The Holidays
There are several holidays and holiday weekends when you tend to be able to find solid specials on used cars. Some of these are listed below:
- Veterans Day
- Black Friday
- Christmas Eve
It's during these times that you're likely to see unique specials at your local car dealerships. If you happen to be busy with family functions on those days or long weekends, there's no reason to assume you've missed out. The lots are likely to still be filled with possibilities during the days following a big sale weekend.
The End of the Month, Quarter, or Year
The reason that you have a better chance of finding extra incentives, loans, or larger discounts on cars at the end of the month, quarter, or year is that dealerships try to hit a specific quota. In particular, these time periods hold important deadlines. Â
Days When the Weather Is Nice
If the sun is shining down on you while you're busy checking out available cars, you will have a better chance of getting a clearer look at your options. If it's rainy or cloudy, it might be easier to miss certain aspects, like scratches or dents, that might have influenced your decision had you known they were there.
During the Winter Months
You're not likely to see as many prospective car shoppers perusing the lots during the winter when it's colder outside. Since the demand is lower at this time, the prices tend to be lower, as well. As a result, you might be able to use this to your advantage and find a used car at a price that's to your liking.
