The Biggest Rebates Available Now
August 23, 2012
This week, I've compiled a list of vehicles that come with rebates of at least $1,000.
This includes both cash-back rebates, as well as "hidden" dealer rebates. The hidden rebates are given directly to dealers by the manufacturer. Dealers are not obligated to pass the rebate to the consumer, and most will not reveal the fact that there's even a hidden rebate available.
The good news is that you can usually get that hidden rebate passed on to you via a lower transaction price if you negotiate aggressively, or use a service like CarWoo

3 Steps Every Car Buyer Needs to Take to Save Maximum Money
The key to getting the best deal is to gather price or lease bids from as many local dealers as possible. Then shop that best price around until no one can beat it. Here are the steps:Step 1 Get Prices From My Trusted Network
Select the vehicle you're interested in to see if there are local dealers in my network who will provide you with their best upfront price. You will get direct access to an internet sales manager who you can further negotiate with online (no need to visit dealership).Select Vehicle to Get Local Pricing
Step 2 Get Prices From TrueCar / CarsDirect
TrueCar, and CarsDirect are my top 2 online price quote recommendations. These services show you pre-negotiated prices from dealers closest to you - and the deals are usually pretty decent. But remember, you can still negotiate further.Step 3 Complete my Checklist
