Holiday Car Deals 2013 – 0 Percent APR, Customer Cash, and More – Part 1

Christmas is less than 2 weeks away, and the holiday deals are in full swing. Sorting through all the cash-back-bonus-bucks-low-APR-for-60-months offers can be a daunting task for even the savviest deal seeker, which is why Approved Loan Store has compiled some of the best holiday deals all in one place. This is only part 1, so keep an eye on the blog in the next week for more great car deals!

Hyundai

0% APR for 72 months on the 2013 Hyundai Elantra, Elantra Coupe, and Elantra GT, No Down Payment is Required

0 percent financing actually means $13.89 per month per $1,000 financed, and not every buyer can qualify for the deal. Consumers with poor credit or no credit might not fall under the program’s parameters, but car buyers who are interested in the deal will need to move fast as the offer ends January 2, 2014.

Buick

$750 Holiday Cash and $500 Consumer Cash on the 2013 Buick Encore FWD
$500 Holiday Cash and $500 Consumer Cash on the 2014 Buick Verano

$1,500 Consumer Cash on the 2014 Buick Enclave
$2,000 Consumer Cash on the 2013 Buick Enclave

There is plenty of fine print on these deals, though. The delivery must happen by January 2, 2014, and the deals are not available on finance or lease offers. Car buyers who have enough funds on hand to pay for the whole car outright can find a good deal, but everyone else will have to check out their financing deals below.

Surprise of the Summer: Crossovers

Looking back on the summer, the auto industry and car buyers have a lot to be happy about from soaring sales numbers to loosening credit restrictions on auto loans. As the summer came to an end, however, one of the surprises of the summer was an unexpected love for crossover models.

According to Automotive News, the Honda CR-V had its best month ever in August, and the Toyota RAV4 saw a 50 percent sales increase the same month. Looking at the industry as a whole, small-crossover sales went up 36 percent accounting for 1 in 4 vehicles sold, and they gave the industry as a whole an enormous boost. Back in 2007, there were 2.4 million crossovers sold in the United States, and in 2013 up until August, 2.6 million crossovers have already been sold.

In recent years, the crossover has been targeting the same market as the minivan and winning out because, as Honda’s Chris Martin puts it, it is a “Goldilocks vehicle.” Not too big, not too small, and just right for today’s families. Pricing is also reasonable with the 2013 Honda CR-V 2WD LX starting at $22,945 and the 2013 Toyota RAV4 starting at $23,300.

New Car Financing: Recap of the LA Auto Show Premieres

Last week, the Los Angeles Auto Show premiered many new concept cars as part of the show. Now, concept cars are always fun to browse, but they won’t be available at your local dealership. This is why we were more interested to see the production vehicle that debuted at the show. They might not have a beak, a bike from TRON, or whatever this is, but these are cars that our customers could be test driving very soon. Here is a quick rundown of some of the show’s biggest production vehicle premieres.

2013 Fiat 500L – The new Fiat keeps the Fiat 500’s charm and gives the driver over 2 more feet of interior space. Who knew a car could so cool and yet cute as a bug?

2013 Porsche Cayman – Porsche claims that the new Cayman can go from 0 to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds. We won’t be able to get behind the wheel until spring of next year, but this lighter and more powerful Cayman definitely has our attention.

2013 Toyota RAV4 – Toyota was really amping up the RAV4’s premiere with promises of “a new generation” of car that embodies “sophistication and strength.” Not much really changed with the RAV4 at least from first glance, and it seems that the auto critics mostly agree. Forbes was more impressed and said that the changes made to the RAV4 were a huge improvement, though even they said it isn’t “oozing excitement.” The 2013 RAV4 will be available January 2013.

2014 Kia Forte – Showing up in cool blue, the 2014 Kia Forte impressed Autoweek which said the Forte proves that cars in its class and price range don’t have to be “bland.” The buzz is that the Forte is a real competitor amongst the new compact sedans.

New Car Financing: Toyota’s New Teaser Trailer for 2013 RAV4

The L.A. Auto Show is almost here, and auto makers are teasing us with all sorts of previews before the show’s official debuts. The latest to jump on the bandwagon is Toyota with their teaser trailer for the 2013 RAV4.

The RAV4 will premiere at a press conference on Wednesday, November 28 as part of the Los Angeles Auto Show. Toyota calls the new RAV4 “a new generation” of car, “embodying sophistication and strength.” Whether it lives up to that praise is yet to be seen, but here is the flashy teaser trailer for the RAV4.

While I am intrigued by the unveiling of the RAV4, the teaser trailer showed very little of the car. The ad had a lot of tight shots and quick cuts, and when it was over, I was disappointed at how little the ad showed off. I get that they don’t want to show off too much before the show, but I was hoping for more than what Toyota gave me.
