Best Holiday Car Deals for 2016
December 8, 2016
With the holiday and end-of-year coming up, car dealerships are chomping at the bit to get car shoppers to sign the dotted line and help them move the remaining 2016 inventory to make more room for the 2017 models. So if you're in the market for a new car, this month is usually the best time of year to buy.
CarsDirect has the low-down on some of deals going on right now until the beginning of the New Year on cars such as the 2016 Kia Optima, 2017 Toyota Camry, and all 2017 BMWs.
And for the best end-of-year savings, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect to see the best deals being offered in your area.

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
