When is the best time to buy a new car?

There are two "best times" to buy a car. The end of December is a good time for car buyers to buy a new car. Everyone is out buying XMAS gifts, leaving new car dealer lots void of customers, motivating dealers to cut prices, and break year end sales records. Another good time to buy a car is July to October as new car dealers sell off cars at low prices to clear space for new car models. Secret factory to dealer incentives can be $1000-$6000 in addition to new car consumer rebates! In November, 2003 BMW had a $5000 secret factory to dealer incentive on the 7 series! If they sell you the car at invoice, they earned $5000 more. You should haggle over this incentive, many dealers willingly give up all or part of this incentive, making your cost lower.
