Q: End of the month car deals - Are they real?
A: In a word, yes! It's no secret that deals always get better at the end of the month as dealers try to meet their sales goals. And when you factor in the end of a quarter, it gets even better for consumers. Automakers push the dealers for volume, which means dealers do whatever it takes to make a deal. This is especially true when dealers are overstocked as many are now and they need to clear vehicles off the lot. Dealers pay interest charges on their inventory, and those charges add up quickly. So they'd rather make a spectacular deal to a Car Pro Show listener than eat the interest charge. So yes, end of the month deals are real.
