The Best Time to Buy a New Car

Dealer Handing Keys To New Car Owner - Best Time To Buy A New Car - Sierra Blanca Motors

If you’re wondering when the best time to buy a new car is, odds are you’re holding out for a great deal, which is a smart move on your part. Shopping at certain times of the year (or week!) can give you access to better specials. At Sierra Blanca Motors in Ruidoso, NM, we want to help you stretch your money further, which is why we created this guide outlining the best time to buy a new car.

Early in the Week

Shopping on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday can help you snag a better price. There’s less customer traffic at the dealership, allowing for more personal attention. When a salesperson has more time, you have a better chance of negotiating the best price. 

One of the benefits of shopping with Sierra Blanca Motors is that there’s no need to negotiate. Our rates are low walking in the door because we value your time.

Late in the Year or Month

Most dealerships have quotas to fill for the brand. This creates a drive to sell more vehicles toward the end of each month and at the end of the year. You will often find some additional RAM Specials and Jeep Specials happening at our dealership during these times.

Holiday Sales

You can’t ignore the holiday car commercials with special incentives. These are some of the best times to purchase a new vehicle. These deep discounts can be better than at any other time of the year.

Some of the best holidays to shop include:

  • Memorial Day – next year’s models tend to start arriving around this time.
  • Black Friday – while it’s a busy time to shop, the deals can’t be beaten.
  • New Year’s Eve – salespeople are out of time to meet quotas and they want to end the year with a bonus. Enjoy the benefit that a buyer can receive during this frantic push.

Shop When New Models Arrive

It’s hard to wait to get behind the wheel of your dream car, but if you can prolong the gratification, you will save more. Watch for the next year’s model to arrive on the lot. That’s when dealerships mark down the current lineup to make room. 

Word to the wise: Don’t wait too long because the previous model won’t last forever. Everyone is looking to cash in on a deal during this time.
