New Car Prices


Cars are a one-time investment for most people, and since it is a big investment, price plays a very important role when choosing a car. Most people have a budget limit for indulging on a new car. Manufacturers change the prices of cars quite often, depending on the market conditions, competition, demand and supply factors, introduction of newer models, and many other factors. Hence, obtaining up-to-date information about the prices of new cars is a very important part of car shopping.

There are many brands of cars in the market today. The model of the car, the make, the year of manufacture, the brand, the manufacturer, and various other factors determine the price. Cars may be classified by the price range: economy, mid-range, premium, luxury, exotic; by manufacturer: Audi, BMW, Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Daewoo, Ford, Honda, GMC, Hyundai, Homer, Infiniti, Jaguar, Jeep, Kia, Land Rover, Lexus, Lincoln, Mazda, Mercedes Benz, Mercury, Mini, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Plymouth, Pontiac, Porsche, Saab, Saturn, Scion, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota, Volkswagen or Volvo; by market segment: crossover, diesel, hybrid, performance, high-performance; or by body styles: SUVs, sedans, coupes, convertibles, luxury vehicles, crossovers, sport, wagons, vans, or trucks. Prices of new cars range from $10,000 to $75,000 and over. New cars are mostly cars made in the years 2005 and 2006 only. Cars manufactured before that are generally not available new.

New cars are usually bought through the dealers who make some changes to the price, like giving certain discounts or adding some taxes over the manufacturer's price. Sometimes, manufacturers give certain discounts to the dealers, which are passed on to the customers. The price quote can be obtained from a dealer by specifying the year, make, and model of the car. Prices may vary in each state. New car prices can also be explored over the Internet, where most dealers have websites along with pictures of the cars and even attractive deals and finance options. Price quotes can also be obtained by filling in some information with the simple click of a button. These websites are a great way to compare deals and prices of new cars.
