The holiday season may be over, but there are still good deals out there if you’re looking for a new car. This Presidents’ Day Weekend, you can save thousands when buying certain vehicles from Infiniti, Volkswagen, and other automakers.
We gathered data from ALG, a subsidiary of TrueCar, to find the cars that offer the biggest savings. Looking at TrueCar’s TruePrice Average, which is based on what customers paid for similar vehicles in February 2019, we narrowed down to models that saw double-digit percentage drops from MSRP.
Read on to learn about some of the hottest car deals this weekend. Note that deals may vary by region.
2019 BMW 740i RWD
MSRP: $84,645
TruePrice Average: $72,836
Savings off MSRP: $11,809, 14.0%
BMW is refreshing its flagship sedan for 2020 with 15 extra horsepower, a larger grille, a redesigned digital instrument cluster, and other updates. Still, the pre-refresh model has a lot to offer as a comfortable cruiser, with high-tech features such as gesture controls. Getting 14 percent off MSRP isn’t a bad deal, although we can’t help but feel the S-Class is a more luxurious car overall.
2019 Infiniti Q70L 3.7 Luxe RWD
MSRP: $52,795
TruePrice Average: $45,718
Savings off MSRP: $7,077, 13.4%
The Infiniti Q70 is a luxury sedan alternative that may not have crossed your mind. But buyers can save up to 13.4 percent off the MSRP this weekend when opting for the long-wheelbase version in Luxe guise. On the standard-wheelbase version of this trim, TrueCar estimates savings of $6,112, or 11.9 percent off the MSRP.
2019 Acura TLX 2.4L FWD
MSRP: $33,995
TruePrice Average: $29,629
Savings: $4,366, 12.8%
It may look like a sedate sedan, but the Acura TLX is sportier than you think, particularly in A-Spec guise. It handles well on windy roads and produces a healthy 206 hp from its base four-cylinder engine. Standard features are plenty and include sport-oriented seats, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, adaptive cruise control, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
2019 Volkswagen Passat 2.0T Wolfsburg Edition Auto
MSRP: $26,190
TruePrice Average: $22,904
Savings: $3,286, 12.5%
Volkswagen has fully redesigned the Passat for 2020. But deals can be had if you have your eye on the old model, which sits on the same platform as the new one anyway. The base 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine makes 174 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque, allowing it to hit 60 mph in 8.4 seconds in our tests. It’s a bit slower than a comparable Accord, but it has a spacious rear seat and trunk.
2019 Infiniti QX60 Pure FWD
MSRP: $44,995
TruePrice Average: $39,357
Savings: $5,639 , 12.5%
Infiniti’s midsize crossover offers a comfortable ride. For 2019, a number of safety features become standard on the base Pure trim. These include blind spot warning, forward emergency braking with pedestrian detection, and forward collision warning. Under the hood is a hearty 3.5-liter V-6 good for 295 hp.
2019 Infiniti Q50 2.0t Pure RWD
MSRP: $36,545
TruePrice Average: $32,172
Savings: $4,373, 12.0%
Refreshed for 2018, the Q50 sedan is priced competitively in the small luxury sedan category. The base Pure model comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making 208 hp.
2019 Alfa Romeo Stelvio RWD
MSRP: $41,590
TruePrice Average: $36,640
Savings: $4,950, 11.9%
If you want the SUV with the most performance for your buck, the Stelvio is a good choice. You don’t have to get the 505-hp Quadrifoglio trim to have fun. The base model produces a healthy 280 hp from its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. That’s enough to take the SUV to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, according to our tests. Along with scintillating acceleration, the Stelvio benefits from a controlled ride, effortless handling, and a smooth shifting eight-speed automatic transmission.
2019 Mitsubishi Mirage LE Hatchback CVT
MSRP: $16,790
TruePrice Average: $14,876
Savings: $1,914, 11.4%
Additional customer cash: $500
It’s a tough market for minicars out there, but sales for the Mirage were up significantly last year compared to 2018. The car is a steal at this price, but you’ll have to be willing to put up with slow acceleration and a good deal of interior noise and vibration. Fuel economy is excellent at 36/43 mpg city/highway when paired with the CVT.
2019 Audi A4 Premium Plus FWD
MSRP: $38,395
TruePrice Average: $34,033
Savings: $4,362, 11.4%
This well-rounded sedan features a stable ride, smooth engines, and one of the nicest interiors in its class. Its virtual cockpit digital dash trumps the competition, featuring crisp Google Earth maps. This deal applies to the mid-trim Premium Plus model, which comes standard with full LED headlights, a 7.0-inch screen, Bang & Olufsen sound system with 19 speakers. Oh, and this sleeper sedan is surprisingly quick, hitting 60 mph in as little as 5 seconds.
2019 Alfa Romeo Giulia RWD
MSRP: $39,590
TruePrice Average: $35,174
Savings: $4,416, 11.2%
We love the Alfa Romeo Giulia sedan—so much so that we named it our 2018 Car of the Year—which is why the idea of getting one at the above price has us so excited. We say it’s the most fun-to-drive car in its class, with razor-sharp handling and an incredible chassis that smooths out bumps in the road. And it has proven to be a practical commuter thanks to its 21.7/37.9 mpg city/highway rating in our Real MPG tests.
2019 Mercedes-Benz C 300 Sedan RWD
MSRP: $42,395
TruePrice Average: $37,669
Savings: $4,726, 11.1%
Recently refreshed, the Mercedes-Benz C 300 now makes 255 hp from its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Although tuned for luxury more than sport, with somewhat vague steering, the C 300 benefits from a quick throttle response off the line when you tune in to Sport+ mode. Fuel economy is another plus: Our Real MPG tests showed a result of 24.5/40.3 mpg city/highway.
2019 Mercedes E 300 Sedan RWD
MSRP: $54,495
TruePrice Average: $48,646
Savings: $5,849, 10.7%
The E-Class sedan can get quite expensive when you pack on the options, but buyers now have the chance to get more than 10 percent off MSRP. The deal featured here applies to the base model with the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder sedan making 241 hp. Standard features are abundant, including dual-zone climate control, remote start, and an interior lighting feature that allows users to turn the cabin one of 64 colors.
2019 Volkswagen Tiguan S FWD
MSRP: $25,290
TruePrice Average: $22,659
Savings: $2,631, 10.4%
Volkswagen has brought prices down on the Tiguan over the past few years, and prices could be even more enticing this weekend. The model has grown in size since the previous generation, and if you can forgive its somewhat slow acceleration from 0-60 mph, you’ll enjoy the Tiguan for its more spacious interior an high-quality materials.
2019 Chevrolet Silverado LT Crew Cab Long Box 4WD
MSRP: $50,195
TruePrice Average: $44,977
Savings: $5,218, 10.4%
Additional customer cash: $500
The mid-range LT trim level of the Chevrolet Silverado benefits from standard features including chrome exterior accents, LED headlamps, an 8.0-inch touchscreen, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration. Chevy’s full-size pickup was redesigned for 2019, and was a 2019 Truck of the Year finalist.
2019 Toyota Camry L Automatic
MSRP: $24,875
TruePrice Average: $22,331
Savings: $2,544, 10.20%
Once king of the automotive landscape, the Camry has been supplanted by the RAV4 as Toyota’s best-selling model in the U.S. Nevertheless, Toyota managed to sell 343,439 copies, proving the resilience of the popular sedan. The current generation has improved significantly from its predecessor when it comes to driving dynamics, but it faces stiff competition from the very capable new Honda Accord.
