Used Cars Show Impressive Reliability

January Is The Right Time To Buy A Used Car

Anyone who has been mulling over the prospect of purchasing a used car may find that January is the perfect time to make such an investment. With a growing number of pre-owned vehicles available for sale, drivers have many options to choose from and can likely find the perfect automobile – within their budget. 

According to The Street, the period from January through early February is the prime time to shop for a used car due to the sheer amount of product available. December saw the best new-car sales in six years, and many of those buyers traded in older models to make the purchase. The bulk of those used cars remain on lots across the country, and the growing supply could mean more options and lower prices. 

"If you traded in a vehicle in December, it's more likely than not still available [for resale] in January," Richard Arca, of Edmunds.com, told The Street. 

As an added bonus, many of these used cars are only a few years old, so the features and technology included are still helpful and relevant. That is certainly a huge boon for buyers, as the used cars for sale still offer many of the same benefits as newer models, making them a wise investment. 

If you think now is the right time to take advantage of the many used car deals available, head out to New Jersey State Auto Auction. The lot has hundreds of Carfax-certified cars, trucks and vans for potential buyers to browse through, and with so many options, you'll be able to find one that fits your budget. Those who still need a bit of help can check out the financing department, which offers insight into different auto loans and payment plans.
