December, January, and February is the best period of the year to get great deals on scooters and ATVs. So profit of this. Dealers will be receiving the new models and need to make room for them. After the new scooters and ATVs have arrived, last year’s models lose value on the market, creating excellent opportunities for buyers. Also scooters and ATVs that have been in the showroom for a long period of time created a debt for the dealer, so ask the dealer for his best price on a non-floored scooter or ATV. He should be more open minded. Also there are still numerous factory backed credit plans that have a zero percent interest rates. Take advantage of these situations. That is FREE money being lent. Another way of finding good deals is to befriend your local scooter or ATV dealers.
Visiting often and asking questions will show them that you’re interested and most of all, serious about buying. They might just surprise you with an inside scoop on an up coming manufacturers sale.
Don’t forget, times are difficult for everyone, even dealers. If you want to negotiate hard, have some up front cash. This will work in your favor. Money talks. Showing money to a seller that needs to make a sale will make him more eager to finalize the sale. This could even give you the chance to negotiate some accessories, like a FREE matching helmet to go with your new ATV or scooter.
To know if you have been offered a great deal on your scooter or ATV, go on the internet to the manufacturer’s website and find the manufacturer’s suggested retail price. If you have been offered a 5% discount, that is a good deal and if you’ve been offered a 10% discount, that is a great deal. In some rare cases dealers will go below the 10% discount. That is a mega deal. Take the time to do the research. It will pay off. And don’t get caught up in the moment.
If your budget doesn’t allow you to buy a new scooter or ATV, there are always used scooters and ATVs that can be looked into. Some folks are drowning in debt and need to sell their ATV at a ridiculous price. Less than what they have invested in. This is one option. But if your heart is set on a new scooter and you want to profit off a zero percent interest rate, finding a co-signer for your loan this could be your solution. It’s much better than paying high interest rates.
