checked out the raptor today.

was nice real tasteful mods. only things i would change right away would be different wheels.
anyways talked to the dude tonight and he said he decided not to sell it for now and even pulled the ad

Is this type of garage door see through from the inside?

No, it’s the same exact view from both sides.

That's a bit shady . Was he just testing the market by putting it for sale?

Uhm I’m guessing he did not do much market research on pricing before posting

Dude posted it for 55 and could have probably sold it for 10k more than that

He was a real cool dude actually

Car market is so crazy right now. I told my wife we need to unload everything and just have one car for the next year or so because the prices dealerships are giving for used cars is crazy and the prices they want for new ones is even more crazy .


I’ve been looking to get my wife into something for the past 6 months and I didn’t pull the trigger because the asking price was laughable to me at the time…. Well joke was on me, it’s ever more laughable now lol

Damn, this would have been a straight come up if you had gotten it. That raptor looked nice in those pictures he put up.

I’ve been trying to tell folks up in here. People were saying it’s going to get better in 2022. No way. With this omicron COVID spike, its going to further disrupt the supply chain which means continued lack of inventory.

You gotta act fast when you see a deal especially in today's market

 

[streetlights]

toyota dealership offered me the same $ i paid for my wifes 4runner in 2018.

it has 40k miles now and is nearly 4 years old…i never really sell my cars, but it is wild times with car prices

i cant wait till dealerships and manufacturers start hurting again…i want the new civic type R!

 

[dinanbmw]

I kinda want a new raptor if I can find one without a ridiculous markup. I have quite a bit of positive equity in mine and I’ve been hesitant to install some mods cause I might trade up

If I were you I would for sure do it, new one is better in every aspect. I thought about doing it with mine but it wouldn’t makes sense as mine used “ used “ enough to warrant it IMO.

I spoke with the general manager of Audi if Beverly Hills today for about 40 mins and the logic he game makes sense it’s just seems so …. Wrong on paper lol

I was saying there isn’t any way I’m paying 20-50k over msrp etc etc….. he explained the the used car market was largely to do with that. He said he can’t take in my trade 20-40k above what the normal market is then sell me a car at msrp, the values don’t add up and he wouldn’t be able to keep anything in stock.

He said “ ok how about I sell you this vehicle as msrp but I only give u what your car is actually worth “ before this crazy inflated” market took over….. I said nah then we’re right back where we started…. He said exactly…. So do we have a deal at 20k over! Lol. He said honestly nothing has changed for the ppl who want to trade in vehicles because they have some high Equity. “It’s the ppl who just want to come in and by a car outright that get screwed but let’s be real I’m selling Audi’s in Beverly Hills, it’s not a big deal in my 20 Radius”

Eh. I traded in my bmw at inflated value and bought a new one for sticker at the same dealer (actually less after rebates). Some dealerships are just scummier than others. **** paying a dime over sticker.

That’s the thing if I unloaded everything and the wife and I went down to one car we would be sitting a a nice chuck of change but there is no telling how long this we’ll last. We couldn’t ….. or should I say she wouldn’t make it last for more than 8mo - 12mo tops!

We returned/sold a leased RAV4 to Carmax this summer and made 6K.

Freaking crazy. We made money on a car we didn’t even own.

I agree with the logic and to date I’ve never paid over sticker BUT so far I have been in contact with every AUDI dealership in California and have been told the same thing. I’m June I was looking for an RS6 and best “deal “ I found was 15k over…. Fast forward now and the price is 40k-50k over.

Maybe my issue is Audi lol

 

[elvampino23]

Our new Civic lease.

Touring Hatch got it at MSRP had to put a $500 deposit just to test drive it. Crazy!

Paying a little more than we wanted in our monthly payment, but the more we wait who knows when the market will get better.

My local Audi dealer doesn’t mark anything up fwiw. Im on the east coast though, Maybe it’s a California thing.

The odd thing is that the two Audi dealer by me and my bmw dealer won’t mark up new cars but have no problem selling used cars for over sticker. Worked out for me.

Fam dealers are living a dream right now. People are buying cars before they even hit the trailer for delivery.

On the Civic forum in Florida. 15k mark up lol

 

[DB Cooper]

Don’t even want to think what a Civic Type R be going for with that madness.

 

[MrClean510]

 

[plansb]

48k for a civic that’s not a type r is ****ing insane.

 

[$tatus $ymbol]

50k for a damn civic Man I lucked out copping my truck when I did. Literally would’ve been screwed if I waited just a few months more. Idc what the situation is I’ll never pay msrp on a car.
