Best Holiday Car Sale Events 

When the holidays come around, car dealerships celebrate by offering great deals on cars. The holidays often come at a time when car sales are slow, so dealerships often usually have great sales and discounts to help them meet sales targets. Here are the best holiday car sale events.

Memorial Day Weekend

As soon as Memorial Day hits, dealerships begin clearing their existing inventory. With newer models arriving, dealers want to make sure their sales goals are met and there’s room on the lot for new inventory.

This is a great time to get heavy discounts. If you’re worried about how long the warranty will last if you purchase a car that’s been out for a while, you’ll be happy to know that the warranty on a new car starts from the date you purchased it, not the manufacturing date, so you won’t lose any time on your warranty by buying a car before the newer model is released.

4th of July

Car dealerships celebrate the 4th of July by offering huge sales. By summer, car dealerships that are lagging behind their monthly targets will take thousands off the sticker price of new cars in order to meet their goals. Buyers who purchase a car during a 4th of July car sale usually save 15 percent off the MSRP.

Labor Day Weekend

Labor Day weekend marks the start of fall, and also when new car models are hitting the lots. If you’ve been planning to buy a new car, Labor Day is the perfect time to get a great deal.

During the fall, car dealerships have to scramble to sell off the current year models in order to make way for the new ones. You’ll find the current year models with heavily discounted prices over Labor Day Weekend. If the model you’re looking for doesn’t have a lot of upgrades for the new year, consider buying one of the current models before they run out.

Black Friday

Many people wait until Black Friday to do their holiday shopping or make big purchases, including cars. If you’re going car shopping on Black Friday, make sure to prepare for crowds.

Just like any other retailer, car dealerships offer discounts great discounts. However, take into consideration that salespeople at the dealership might not have as much time to give you individual attention, and negotiating a good deal might be difficult. Consider shopping before Thanksgiving, right after the deals are announced. The salespeople will most likely have more time to get you the deal you want.
