    $130K?

    Mate, the second he left the dealership, a piece of shit like that devalued to $FuckAll for obvious Australian reasons.

    But enjoy the loan payments, being laughed at, and this shit whenever going shopping.

      Does that rule still work? I was looking for a car last year and used cars were more expensive than new ones, but for new cars the wait period was 6 to 24 months.

        Yeah this is a trend in the past two’ish years, due to the component shortages. Basically, auto makers have a bunch of new cars on the lot, which are all undriveable because they couldn’t source the components for the dashboard. They had literal parking lots full of nearly-built cars, just waiting on one or two small chips to come in so they can finish building it.

        So as a result, the used car market boomed. Used cars suddenly tripled in price, because nobody could buy new.

        I believe the accepted term is “dollarydoos”.
