The Best 0% Financing Deals
November 28, 2012
This week, I scoured through the incentives being offered by manufacturers to determine which brands are offering the best 0% financing deals. Suzuki, not surprisingly, is offering the best ones - 0% for up to 72 months. But keep in mind, they filed for bankruptcy earlier this month, so the value of the vehicles will be taking a hit when it comes time to sell later down the road.
I also included any cash-back incentives that are available as an alternative to the financing deals. In most cases, it's better to go with the cash rebate, especially since interest rates are so low right now. (See: How to Choose between 0% Financing and Cash Back)
Check out the full list below and make sure you use the free RydeShopper when you're ready to get the best deal on your vehicle.
