Many auto dealers do up to 70 percent of their December business in the week after Christmas, says James O'Sullivan, CEO of Mazda North America. Some don't even bother to advertise much until right before Christmas, recognizing that it would be hard to get most consumers' attention, he says.

"December is not the biggest selling month of the year," says O'Sullivan, but Dec. 26 to Jan. 1 is the "most intense selling week of the year."

Several factors make the post-Christmas/pre-New Year's period a bountiful one for the car business. One of the biggest is that many people are off work and kids are home from college, so there's time for families to shop . From Dec. 26 through Jan. 1, though, "Every day is like a weekend"

There's also pent-up demand among consumers who have held back on big-ticket purchases the past few years, says James Bell, executive market analyst at Kelley Blue Book. And many people know that "at the end of the month, dealers are a little more willing to wheel and deal." Those hoping to get a tax deduction for a new model bought or leased for business also may be rushing to buy before the end of the year, Bell says.

People are clearly still in the mood to shop after Christmas.Jason Owens, General Manager for for Lance Cunningham Ford, says Dec. 26 is among the busiest shopping days of the year, and the week after Christmas can account for up to 15 percent of holiday sales.
