New or used?
You’ve probably heard that a new car loses thousands in value the moment you drive it off the lot. Since that saying is actually true, let some other guy drive the car off the lot. Then you buy it at a reduced price. “A good two- or three-year-old used car is the best automotive buy out there," Quincy says.
This is especially the case right now. During the financial crisis, new-car sales and leases plummeted, therefore, used-car inventories dropped off two years later. With less supply, prices went up. As the economy recovered, though, new-car buying and leasing picked up, and now those late-model used cars are coming to market. The National Automobile Dealers Association says 2014 will mark the first year prices have fallen since the recession, and Calland has seen evidence of the trend at auction.
