2011 Jaguar XKR
Interested in a 2011 Aston Martin DB9?
Grand Touring Automobiles has one with a sale price of $188,800. That's a massive discount from the $225,149 list.
Or how about a 2011 Bentley Flying Spur demonstrator: list price $257,484; sale price $218,800.
Grand Touring is a high end dealership specializing in Astons, Bentleys, Bugattis, Jaguars, Land Rovers and Rolls-Royces. Right now this retailer is touting a big sale and it shows that wealthy people like big, fat deals, too.
Naturally, that sent Deals of the Week looking for other deals on premium vehicles. We found a tidy discount on the BMW X6 sport activity vehicle and the savvy buyer should be able to squeeze out a few thousand more in a dealer discount during negotiations.
Infiniti's G37 coupe has $1,000 factory discount in play and if you push, the dogged buyer could push the dealer into a decent discount, too.
And the luscious Jaguar XK coupe is being pushed with a $10,000 factory discount. Again, some sort of dealer discount is likely in play, too.
For you mainstream buyers we also dug into what Kia Canada is offering on the Kia Forte compact sedan: a $2,500 factory discount that can be combined with a certain financing option.
Our conclusion: Whether you're rich or not, the deals are out there.
