Trade value is better now than before pandemic, but unless it’s new you’re paying more used as well.

I think that the market is just generally getting tighter and prices are simply not going to be discounted like that any more. |

My car + $X = New Car When the dealer has to give top dollar for the trade, the offset with no discount off of the new price. When trade values are terrible, they have a lot more room to move on the selling price of the new car. Everyone gets all wrapped up in what the value is for their trade, but it makes zero difference in the grand scheme. |

If you sell your car now while prices are high then you will have to wait for the market to adjust in order to really gain because whatever you buy now also costs more. I agree the way the market it is right now buying new almost makes more sense.
For example, I could buy a 2017 A10 ZL1 with 4k miles for 49k last May. Now that same car or something similar is 52-54k. Hell I remember a couple dealers local closing out remaining 2018 Zl1's new for 52k a couple years back.

It was some of both. I got dealer discounts and gm discounts. I was too lazy to dig out the paperwork. Maybe my laziness will not be so overwhelming tonight 😷

Yes, the (vehicle) market has been in conditions that I've never seen before. I made a couple thousand off of my Infiniti trade (factoring money that was invested into it, not simply looking at the positive equity I had) and I happened to purchase my Camaro at a great price. I got it cheap enough that I could about trade/sell to Carvana, etc. today and break even.

not unless you are renting it out for more money than your mortgage/taxes/insurance on it.
