New Car Deals for August 2010: Full-Size Cars

There aren’t many old-school full-size sedans on the market any more, but those that remain available virtually all carry a meaningful sales incentive this month. At the top of the list is the Chevy Impala, though it’s in the form of a direct-to-dealer rebate. Typically General Motors slaps cash on the hood of its slow-selling models, so this must be an effort to make the dealers look good by offering deep discounts. The enduring Mercury Grand Marquis offers both, for a possible total of $5,500, not counting how far down you can otherwise whittle the dealer’s markup.
