Prices going up higher for the CTR!

[Nightshifter]

Got it! I misread you post

I think the reason the Type R might have decreased on some sites is because of oversupply now. Everyone and their grandmama sold their CTR to break even or make money =) Can't blame them though... esp. if you want out of the car and into something different.

Car prices are bad around me (well most everywhere)... a lot of cars are sold within minutes (unless claimed beforehand via order...) mostly performance cars.. Audi s3,s4 .. Stinger GT1 ... and they want anywhere from 5k - 10k over MSRP! Now here's some more news for those that haven't heard... A lot of car manufactures are no longer taking orders from consumers who want to avoid the market adjustments! Also, you will be required to return a leased vehicle to one of the brand's franchised new car dealerships, or buy it yourself at the buyout price specified in your lease contract.

The global microchip shortage and other market disruptions stemming from the ongoing coronavirus pandemic have reached every corner of the automotive market. Many new cars are in short supply, used car values have skyrocketed, and even rental cars are hard to come by. Dealers simply want lease return vehicles back on their lots, where they alone can take advantage of their inflated values... lol!

Yes... there are some cars selling around MSRP... like a genesis g70 (personally I'd take the stinger over this any day.... G70 to me is just ugly and no trunk room) but good luck finding one. As soon as the dealer gets one in... GONE BABY! Audi S4 just got in yesterday... it was sold a few hours later. Folks came down from Riverside to buy the car and payed over MSRP. Every single M3 (G80) that came into BMW the other day was sold 10k over MSRP! Wow! Now BMW (by me) is taking orders for an M3... 10K over MSRP

I see a lot of stealerships with '22 Civics for sale and many of them are "in transit".
If I had the energy I'd go to my local dealer and find out what they are actually charging, because all the ads are at MSRP.
Like that's gonna happen.

Got my 21 WRX for a grand under MSRP. There are still deals to be had but most of them will probably not be found at big dealers around you. Might have to look out of state or in smaller towns in your state.

Isn't that the old version of the WRX? In normal times, that car would be back of invoice right now.

BAIT! Once you go there or get the figures... there's an addendum I been doing this with the wheeler ships over here... I get a payment figure and it's more than what I figure ... "well Joe.. we're like 3000 dollars off here ... did I miss something in my calculation?"
"Well... there's an addendum.... 699.00 for Nitrogen filled tires... 1099 for steel coat ... shadow serial #'s... blah blah blah". LOL

Honda made a car called the CRX before. Now they make one called the CRZ.
They skipped the one in the middle because the prototype was so bad, it made them CRY

I'm thinking prices are going to swing depending on a lot of things such as: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a39123584/cargo-ship-porsche-vw-fire-atlantic/

Only if you are one of the 1100 Porsche "owners" or the 189 Bentleys, or 100 or so Golf R et al. Will probably help keep prices up.

I mean there is nothing positive going on anymore. All we get is negativity and doom world. Everything going up to hurt us financially. I can't let this stand anymore. I must do something

Funny when you want to sell your car to the dealer... how they downplay this whole inflated scenario... then walk across the street to the main lot and inquire about a new car and get the big chicken dinner mark up

I did this to see what up! Used car manager tells me that my car NEW across the street is selling for MSRP, which was the reason he couldn't give me ~MSRP cash for my car So I go across the street and go through the entire process of buying a new car... guess what... from MSRP 42,185 > 51160! 6999.00 Mark Up plus an Addendum! I show him the sheet the new car salesmen gave me and asked him why the car was selling nearly 10k over MSRP? His unquestionable intellectual reply was... "I don't know...". For legal reasons I really can't disclose much (vin#, dealer name...); but look at this shitzu >

Since we are talking doom and gloom.

If war erupts between ukraine and russia. Price and availability of cars will get worse.
Russia supplies 1/3 of the worlds palladium and if yall are not aware. This is essential in catalytic converters.

Of course there are other global ramifications if that war happens. Just staying on topic.

Just got a third price drop notice from Carvana on the <5K mile '18 i sold them in October. What was originally a 4.5% markup over what they paid me has now dropped to a 0.5% markdown. And that includes free shipping.
