Best Deals on Leftover Models
Between now and December is your best chance to get a great deal AND have a good selection of vehicles to choose from. The longer you wait, the less chance there is to get the exact color and options you want. Keep in mind that most manufacturers have stopped producing the 2012 models, so whatever is left on the lots is what you have to choose from.
This week, Edmunds.com released their list of leftover models that are currently offering the best deals. Check it out below, and make sure you use the RydeShopper to get the biggest discounts.
