Any car salesman out there?

Any truth to this idea you can get a better deal before the end of the year or can you get the same deal after the new year as you can before the new year. I'm guessing it doesn't matter, but does anyone know for sure?

 

timing certainly won't matter the way things are right now with sales down 30%+ for everybody.

 

just be ruthless as shit..Everyone is dying to sell a car right now. Do it right and you might actually have them pissed they sold a car to you. Thats when you know you did a well done job. Make them quote you a price thats low then bust out a comparable to make them go even lower. Squash those cock-a-roaches !!

 

Get email quotes on the car you want with the equipment you want, then most of them will match whomever is lowest if you take the quote to show them.

 

Just let me know what you are looking for and the neighborhood you live in and I'll get some of my ....uh....... associates to see if they can find something for you. Act now and I'll throw in a stereo at no extra charge!

 

For a new car purchase, the Costco Auto Program is a great way to get a great price on any new car. The price is pre-negotiated by Costco and will be $100-$300 over invoice minus any rebates...

 

there aren't many cars that you can't get at or below invoice right now by sitting at home and price shopping dealership internet departments.

 

Dealers use the internet to get rid of cars quickly. Internet prices are pretty much always the cheapest. You're always going to get a higher quote walking into a dealership, not to mention dealing with some scumbag trying to rip you off.

 

You can get a Volvo at Costco right now for $2250 less than employee pricing. http://www.costcoauto.com/volvo/

A lot of dealerships have employee pricing right now, which is pretty much the best you're going to get. Dealerships have to get rid of last years inventory or pay taxes on it, so that should answer your original question. There are a lot of new fuel efficient vehicles coming out next year though.

What kind of car do you want to get?

 

That Volvo comes with a 15 gallon vat of Mayonnaise and a 48 pack of hot dogs!

 

That sounds like a really bad porno

 

Or a real good one! I watched that Laker game tonight. They looked tough!

 

That's what I did. I emailed a bunch of dealers, told them what I wanted and to give me their best price. I'd buy from the lowest bidder.

 

I went this route. I picked a car with options then emailed three dealership to get a quote.

Ironically the most local dealer gave me the best price. Just picked up my car today.

So today the Ducks come from behind to win. The Blazers beat the Celtics and I drove a new car home. What a day . . .

 

If you want a Volvo I know of a place you can go.

 

Maybe you should consult this guy......"'No, I don't play. No, I don't coach. Yes, I sell cars."

When I did this looking for a new Corolla for my wife, I had bids between $12,250 to $14,000.
