[Zelensky]

The new Tacomas are running into the 60k range.

That's Bidenomics, Jack!

[eod8989]

Yeah i have said this a bunch that most people have new expensive vehicles now. Either SUVs, Trucks or luxury Mercedes and stuff like that. You almost never see beaters anymore. These vehicles have to cost around $1,400 per month to drive srs. How the fook.

[alphaalbertan8]

also interest rates are 7% if you finance

wtf

I would never go higher than 0.9% max

[baldbrah]

A lot of new cars are priced sky high for morons but 20-30% off if you know how to work rebates and incentives.

or some electric rebate?

[theory816]

Supply and demand

[MikeLowrrrey]

There's plenty of base cars cheaper than that. Kia, Chevy, and Hyundai to name a few. Also you can go corolla


Toyota Camry is damn near luxury at this point

[kengriffeyjr24]

34k is like 21k from a few years ago (srs). inflation is not as low as they have reported (even at its supposed peak in 2022)

you really think our government would admit we had 20% inflation in one year? the reaction would cause a price spiral

housing, daycare, 5 guys hamburgers, tuition all up like 25%....but its ok boyos inflation was really only like 7%!

Dealers have a lot of room for negotiation. You can get a car under dealer invoice if it's the right time right place. A lot of the best incentives aren't listed because they only use them to close hard sales. You have to be willing to walk out. Be an uninterested tire kicking window shopper with excellent credit and you will get insane deals. They can give you employees only pricing with manufacturers rebates on top if they want to. You can walk out thousands under dealer invoice and tens of thousands under listed msrp.

[mrdot]

Everyone I know who owns a car has done some kind of drug dealing / financial fraud

[6gorillion]

MORONS are lmao.

Driving car til 300K miles crew

If you have bad credit or don't buy new cars regularly you won't have access to the best deals. It's not like they do that for everyone. If you have 750+ credit and multiple car history with that dealer they will roll out the red carpet for you.

before covid I would low ball dealers all the time. thats how I got my previous car.

I dont care about some ****gy relationship with stealerships

1 dealership when i walk in they just straight up ignore me. But ive gotten my best deals this way.

Still how are people affording these $36-60k vehicles? The most popular vehicles right now are all expensive af srs.

You used to see almost all beaters on the road srs. Not luxury chit.

A 35k car is $500 a month. Not terribly expensive. And for 35k out the door you should be looking at a 45-50k msrp.

how much down. Also your paying 6-7% interest at todays rates

[Azrairc]

base corolla is still 20k

[alphaalbertan8]

base corolla is still 20k

26k here

its too small car for 4 ppl anyways (especially americans)

also its not the top selling car compared to camry and rav 4

[baldbrah]

Car loans don't follow fed rates. They are just as negotiable as the price of the vehicle.

In this current economy $500 is a lot of money. I definitely wouldn't want to purchase a car right now with insurance and gas so high either yet people are buying them like crazy. All expensive ones too it seems.

500 dollars

+ new car insurance

and 6-7% interest rate

[baldbrah]

If you're looking at used cars none of this applies. They don't have a 20% MSRP markup, manufacturer rebates and employee pricing on slower moving vehicles.

Used cars are purchased at auction or traded in and are generally competitively priced to move unless they are a highly desired model.

Either way there won't be much if any wiggle room on the price. You also won't get good finance rates on used vehicles.

[Godfrd824]

I am. I like the fact that no one else has abused the car, farted on the seats, there are no weird smells, full warranty, all that. I used to be all about used cars, and still recommend them for others, but I'm finally in a position financially where a 20% difference between used and new doesn't really mean much.

Buy used and you don't know what was done to the car. Buy new and you know the dealer will bend over backwards to please you, luxury dealers will anyways.

[JuicePro]

Hondas hond their value pretty good so if u buy new it'd be solid buy
