Fall is a great time to buy a new or used car, and if it's a CPO luxury vehicle you want, this may be the season to remember. Whether it comes from Lexus, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, or Acura, this time of year brings out some opportunities to save money while finding the exact model you want. Here's why fall is the best time to explore dealership options and bring home that luxury car.
Many car dealerships work based on monthly, quarterly, and yearly quotas for new cars and CPO vehicles. By the end of the year, car dealers have become even hungrier to meet their quotas. Salespeople are much more aggressive with closing deals, especially during Black Friday and Christmas. This also applies to luxury car dealers, so fall is a great time for a car purchase because customers can get the most exclusive incentives.
Many manufacturers, such as BMW, Ford, Acura, and Mercedes-Benz, also offer bonus incentives during the fall to stimulate the sale of new and CPO vehicles. That means deep discounts on certified pre-owned cars, which also frequently come with goodies like an extended warranty and better interest rates.
Another reason the fall is the best time for car buying is the arrival of new models. Come September, automakers begin launching their outgoing SUVs and sedans. Therefore, car dealerships are anxious to get outgoing models off inventory lots.
CPO cars are most likely older than the previous model year, especially for luxury vehicles. The car dealership showrooms will provide attractive deals to accommodate new arrivals.
Fall also provides good conditions for trade-ins, especially when new models reach the market lots and the old cars are being moved out. If you're upgrading from an older luxury car or SUV, the trade-in values can be quite appealing.
That means car dealers will wheel and deal more since they are pushing to meet quotas. It is prime time to negotiate the best deal on your trade-in and save money on your certified pre-owned luxury car.
While interest rates tend to fluctuate throughout the year, fall is known for offering good interest rates on CPO vehicles. This is because dealerships have higher goals during this time and are trying to close as many sales as possible. So, if you're considering a Toyota, an Acura, or a Lexus, these lowered rates all point to being able to lock in the best car price on your new car purchase.
The time between Black Friday and Christmas is usually associated with excellent offers. You can also check for sales around Memorial Day or Labor Day. Many car manufacturers link their promotions with these holidays, which may help car buyers get the best car prices for high-end automobiles.
And if you can hold off till the end of the month or closer to New Year's, you can save more since salespeople are working much harder to meet their quotas.
