A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

Does the time of year affect how much my car sells for?

Yes, timing affects demand and therefore price. Convertibles and sports cars get more interest in spring and summer. SUVs and AWD vehicles see stronger demand before winter. Tax refund season (February through April) historically increases used car demand and prices. If you can wait for the right seasonal window and your car fits one of these patterns, timing the sale can meaningfully improve your result.

We had some unfortunate events with 2 cars, Vantage made it all the difference in getting us back to normal. They were extremely easy to work with, amazing service and attention to detail, and made buying a car a fantastic experience.

I just leased a new car with them yesterday and it was a fantastic and easy experience. Charlie was incredibly helpful and thorough. I had the car delivered 24 hours after my first conversation with Charlie! I'll never visit a dealer again. I highly recommend Vantage Auto Group

Debbie was an absolute pleasure to work with—professional, attentive, and incredibly responsive. I told her exactly what I wanted on a Friday afternoon, and by Monday morning she had the perfect car lined up, at a price even better than what the dealership offered. She also secured a significantly higher trade‑in value than I was able to get anywhere else. The car was delivered right to my driveway later that week. I’ve already recommended Debbie and Vantage Auto Group to several people looking to buy or lease a new car. Truly exceptional service.

Not only did they negotiate the absolute best prices for us for two vehicles, they were also very thorough and very quick with response time. Delivered the vehicles to our house and made the process very hassle free. I will never buy a car at a dealer again
