It depends on the dealer, car, and market conditions. I would generally not time the market like this except in very general terms. If you have a car in mind already, find out what other people are getting in terms of discounts. If it is a mass market model and not something extra special, about the only time to avoid is the 2-3 months when a new model year is released. This is the time the dealer gets rid of older model year units on the lot. After that the deals are about the same on the newer model year.

You do get *some* additional money off of a remaining unit of prior model year, but it's not as much as people think, and you will lose a similar amount on resale due to the one year older model year.

The key is to investigate what others have purchased a similar car for recently. There are plenty of discussion forums where this information is shared freely. [/quote]
