You will save money before the year ends, especially around the end of the month, as the MSRP will not change until the following year. So, if you purchase a vehicle in 2022, you can save some extra bucks!VINN Tip: Be sure to shop around and stay up to date on our inventory so you know what is available to you.

This means they may offer various car deals in terms of incentives and rebates to incentivize you to buy your dream car.Additionally, many dealerships will be looking to sell older models as the following year’s models will arrive at the showroom soon. Any previous unsold models will need to be sold as soon as possible, creating a further reason to discount.VINN Tip: When negotiating, if the salesperson does not offer a lower price, ask for supplement items for your vehicles, such as all-weather tires, lifetime oil changes, and mats.
