CarsDirect Launches "Expert Buying Outlooks" to Help Consumers Get the Best Deal on a New Car
(firmenpresse) - LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/31/11 --
CarsDirect (), a leading online automotive shopping service and research portal, today introduced on CarsDirect.com. Exclusive to CarsDirect, Expert Buying Outlooks provide concise buying overviews and pricing information for individual vehicle models to help consumers get the best deal possible when shopping for a new car.
Each Expert Buying Outlook provides a graph of recent pricing trends for each model and a summary of where prices appear to be headed, helping shoppers understand what is driving current price trends and how to time their vehicle purchases to get the deal that is best for them. A team of CarsDirect vehicle experts creates each Outlook using CarsDirect's vast database of exclusive vehicle buying and pricing data.
"Our team of experts is constantly interacting with auto manufacturers and dealerships around the country, so our fingers are always on the pulse of pricing and incentive trends in the industry," said Mark McCready, VP of Market Planning and Pricing at CarsDirect and leader of the vehicle expert team. "The Expert Buying Outlooks enable us to efficiently package this insight and share it with car shoppers in one place."
Expert Buying Outlooks will be updated frequently in response to changes in the market and how those changes will affect individual models. For example, the effect of an upcoming redesign or a natural disaster on a model's pricing and availability will be noted in each Outlook.
"The fact that there's a living, breathing team of experienced experts behind each Outlook is key," said McCready. "We're not an algorithm throwing out suggestions as you search for a new car. We're closely monitoring the market and updating Outlooks on the fly with information that could make or break getting a great deal on a new car."
Expert Buying Outlooks appear when visitors to CarsDirect.com perform a new car search at . Outlooks are currently available for the top 160 vehicle models, with more to be added in the coming weeks.
