American drivers are likely to buy cars from particular brands depending on the region of the country they call home, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal's MarketWatch.
Whether it's United States-manufactured vehicles like models from Buick and Chrysler or imports like Volvo, consumers tend to keep buying more of the same.
Because manufacturers target areas where particular brands are popular, shoppers can get a better bargain if they look at different locations.
"If there's a lot of inventory and competition in that segment heavy incentives will be pushed for those cars," Richard Arca, senior manager of pricing for auto resource website Edmunds.com, told MarketWatch.
One example is the Chrysler 200, which goes for 1.5 percent less in Detroit, Mich., compared with pricing in Los Angeles, Calif. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class is popular in L.A., selling for 2 percent less there than its price in Kentucky, according to Edmunds.
Kelley Blue Book has broken down car buyers' regional tendencies with an analysis of the online shopping of 10 million consumers.
According to KBB senior analyst Karl Brauer, Americans tend to pick car brands that reflect regional characteristics.
"Given the importance of the automobile industry in the Midwest, shoppers there prefer Americans brands that are produced in their own backyard," Brauer told MarketWatch.
