I did! I was buying a very slightly used 2015 model, the 2016 models had just gone deep discount (9k off sticker price), I was able to use that to drop another 2k off the price of my 2015.
Good car buying experiences do happen, admittedly not that often. Having correct timing (knowing when models go on clearance) and being willing to comparison shop across all dealers around the state (and neighboring states) is key to getting a good deal.
- gambiting 9y agoI did as well. I specifically found an ex-demo vehicle, so it only was 3 months old but it knocked off 20% off the original price. Effectively, the dealership took the initial depreciation hit, not me.
