Best Used Car Incentives for May
May 22, 2014
Memorial Day is just a few days away, and as the unofficial start of summer there's usually some great deals on used certified pre-owned vehicles. US News & World Report's Best Cars Blog has the low-down on some of these deals.Most of the used car incentives are in the form of low interest finacing, raning from 0% to 2.99% - for example, Cadillac is offering 0% financing on all CPO (certified pre-owned) models until June 2, while Nissan has 0% financing for 36 months on all CPO models. Nissan also has $500 cash back on some models, which is rare for used vehicles.
If you're considering buying a used car, you may also want to check out prices on the new versions, just to make you're not missing out on a great deal. I recommend using TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect to see the lowest prices on any new vehicle.
