Best "Spring Sales Events" Right Now
April 16, 2015
Spring has officially started, which means it's a great excuse for manufacturers to offer "Spring Sales Events". In past years, these types of events were mostly gimmicks, but in recent times, the deals are actually something you might want to seriously take advantage of. Competition between car makers is ferocious - and as car sales begin to level off, manufacturers are relying on heavy incentives to try to take market share from competitors.
Edmunds.com gathered together some of the special Spring sales events going on this month. Six manufacturers are offering special lease deals and cash back offers to drive sales higher. Check out the details below.
As always, I highly recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle, CarsDirect and NADAGuides to see the best deals being offered in your local area.
