Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

Yea I have a sick car addiction and I follow the market very closely. Stellantis is the canary in the coal mine. They are also the biggest dicks in the coal mine. The prices they are charging for Jeeps/SUVs is/was pure opportunistic rape which was admittedly fueled by an idiotic public's willingnes...

They do though… m5s, xm5s, xm3s etc all drop like crazy. Yea one can claim “they are not real m cars” or what not but they are.
OK, I will amend my statement. M cars WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION will not depreciate much/rapidly.

“Normal pricing, nothing to see here” I’m with you that it’s not acceptable, but this does reinforce the point. OEMs are asking these insane prices for regular old vehicles.

:doit: Also, when did BMW ever stop being the ultimate depreciation machine? 2020>2023. The m3 that I had was worth 56k on residual but 49k in the market when I traded it in…. They went to 60-65 and are still 55ish. Which is insane M2s (last gen’s) were above sticker for a bit used 1Ms are like 30-...

Gotta love a coarse 4 banger from a Camry, coupled with some shitty hybrid components that still make it have less mpg than an F150 with a twin turbo V6 and 0 hybrid bullshit…. And they are trying to get nearly the same money (post markup)
