New York, Dec. 11: Desperate for sales of their cars in the wake of the Wall Street meltdown, car dealerships in the Apple City, are offering huge and deep discounts.
According to the New York Daily News, the dealerships have come up with options like "Buy one get one free!", and the deal is reported as being offered across the country.
"We''ve heard about the buy-one-get-one-free ads in Florida, Ohio and Texas," the NYDN quoted Richard Arca, a senior analyst at Edmunds. com, as saying.
"The first thing people think when they come in is ''It''s a fake ad. It''s a normal car dealer ad. It''s a gimmick.'' But it''s not," said Ali Ahmed, a Dodge dealer in Miami who offered a buy-one-get-one-free deal.
