9 Labor Day car deals to look for

New car incentives are few and far between

With the ongoing new car shortage it'll probably be easier to find an open spot on the beach for your blanket on Labor Day than discounts on a vehicle purchase.

Transaction prices have reached record highs and a J.D. Power study found that the average incentive across the market dropped to just 4.3% in August.

Used car prices are also through the roof, but that means savvy shoppers with a trade-in are in a good position to make out if they can score a rare deal on a new vehicle.

Edmunds has scoured the market for models with relatively large inventories and discounts to help and has found a few to look out for if you're not too picky:
