There was just a marketwatch article that said current prices are artificially inflated. Dealers are at 40% above normal inventory for used cars. Prediction is within a year prices are going to crash...
True, but I'm of the mindset that if I'm dropping $40k on a car I want to minimize the extra spending, I was already budgeting 5k for new wheels/tires. It's all good! I'll eventually get one.
Follow up: deal fell through. The Type R was amazing - I got to test drive it. There was an aftermarket exhaust on it and the noise was basically unbearable. I commute 100 miles a day, so had to pass on that particular car.
I test dove a 2019 today, 13,000 miles selling for $42k.
I gotta say, the mods killed it for me. It had a GReddy DDR exhaust that gave me a headache after about 5 minutes, and when I put it in R mode and opened up, exhaust filled the cabin. Obviously there is a leak from a bad install. My only...

Ha I've been scoping the scene for months now, and there was just a massive price hike across the board. I'm regretting passing on an offer I got in August for a brand new '21 CW for 41k. They offered me 25.5k for my EX.
Just this week Carvana offered me 25.5k and Vroom offered me 26K for...
So I haven't purchased anything yet. Been keeping an eye on Carvana and cars have been moving fast. I have an appointment Monday with a local dealer, it's going to hinge on them working with me. They have a 2019 with incredibly low miles marked up 5k. Carvana offered me 25.5k for my EX, and if...
Has anyone had an issues purchasing a CTR from Carmax or Carvana? I'm searching there and the prices/trade-ins are more reasonable than my state (NJ). Almost every dealer is doing bait-and-switch, posting MSRP on their website and then adding 10k+ in the dealership. I'm just wondering if anyone...
Yeah I keep debating on getting a second car but it's to keep the mileage off my FK7. I'm getting 40-50mpg but I drive about 120 miles a day. Hoping a second car can just ease up on the wear and tear. Problem is the market, I was looking at Velosters but they wanted 22.6k for a 2019 that was...
I live in southern NJ like OP and commute to Joint Base MDL every day, I see the same Aegean Blue every day, plus a few white ones. Probably 2-3 a day. I just bought a lunar silver EX in July and am kicking myself for not going for the R but I’ll hold out and try in a few years.
