Prediction: March Sales Report Will Ignite the Rebate War

With one weekend left in March to sell cars, we are predicting the sales reports will ignite the rebate war that has been building over the last several months. One auto analyst is predicting March sales will come in over 10% lower than last year, and that should take the lid off any restraint automakers have been holding onto to get people into the showrooms.

The industry standard, Automotive News, has already written at least two editorials this years urging automakers not to go the rebate route, but since March is the end of the first quarter of the calendar year, we feel rebates will pick up substantially.

But we're already seeing big rebates get quietly piled on, notably in pickup trucks, and also from Chrysler, Nissan, Ford and even Hyundai. It is not uncommon to see rebates of from $1,500 to $6,000 on many vehicles.

Many of you have already subscribed to our rebate data service, Current Auto Rebates, that detail the info for every vehicle. When the current programs expires, mostly on March 3, there will be plenty more big dollar giveaways to be had, so you may want to subscribe to the updates if you're shopping for a new vehicle.

One more note: to ensure you're getting the best deal and service possible, we suggest using the free price quote tool available on these pages and inside Current Auto Rebates, because it puts the dealership in the position of trying to win your business, as opposed to you walking in cold off the street.
