ITT we describe people we know who buy new cars. How is it that these car companies sell so many new cars when the used market is so much better value?
Bonus points if they aren't auto enthusiasts who are buying their dream porsche or someting.
The guy I know bought his Yaris new 'because it would be more reliable'. He financed his car loan and still hasn't paid it off. He owes more than the piece of shit is worth. His mom told him to do it because it would be the smart choice. I told him to just go full cuck and buy a used smart car because they are so hated in the USA the used ones are cheap and barely used.
He owns a company car, which they supply to him with a brand new Ford every single year, 100% payed gas, maintenance, insurance, etc.
He married a bitch latina and they just had twins. So he needed a second car. I told him to spend $4000 and get a mint crown vic, and use the rest of the money to spend on maintenance, gas and insurance. But she didnt like that idea.
He went out and bought a fucking brand new Jeep Liberty or Patriot or whatever for $20 000 which sat in his driveway literally all winter because he couldnt afford the insurance on it due to a DUI he got 5 years ago.
So, he COULD HAVE been driving the option I suggested but he just NEEDED a new car.
What a fucking stupid move. My parents never listen to my advice and it always slaps them right in the face.

You need to build up credit score if you want to buy a house, so a relatively small loan of up to 40k helps out to prove to the bank you can pay off debts
So whats something thats under 40k? a nice new car and since most new car owners arent auto enthusiasts they end up buying shit that was advertised at them just right
So here i am in my moms basement and my 30 year old landbarge because im smart with my money just like the rest of you guys on Veeky Forums
Michael Cook
>relatively small loan of up to 40k >up to 40k >40fuckingk NIGGA WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS BULLSHIT
Dylan Moore
40k isn't much, especially considering since its the average price of a new car that isn't about total economy. Besides, a home loan is going to cost in excess of 100,000+ so its a good start
Dominic Brown
Or you could not tie yourself to 40 thousand doll hairs for the next 7 years so you can actually move out before your 34
Jack Butler
Nope. Ran the vehicle report and everything checks out. It was originally at 30k but I somehow managed to bring it down.
Jace Lopez
My gf's 08 Vue got totaled (3rd car in a 4-car rear-end pileup), for which she got $6700 from insurance
We looked at a lot of shit, always used, but actually ended up settling on a '17 chevy cruze hatch. They're typically ~$22k new, but a big pile of discounts knocked it down to around $16k. Which isn't much more than the '15 and '16 ones we'd been looking at. The nice-to-have features of the '17 (and the fact that earlier models don't come in a hatch) were enough to make it worth that little gap.
So $10k of it was financed. Her monthly payment is ~$175.
Alexander Adams
$175 for a piece of turd econobox. Lol!!
Jaxson Adams
Basically there is a segment of the population that places a false trust in dealerships and new cars. They don't feel comfortable buying used cars because they simply don't understand how cars work. It's that simple. These are the type of people that don't even understand something as basic as hydraulic brakes. It's pathetic.
Jose Cruz

Aaron Brooks
I've never bought a new car before, but I've been considering it lately. Used inventory is low for what I'm looking at, and there are still 2015 models sitting on dealer lots, so I imagine I could get a decent deal.
>40fuckingk Depends on your perspective. That's huge to some people, and small to others.
Also this though. An auto loan is good for your credit history, but don't finance a new car for that reason alone.
Angel Sullivan

I bought a new car. Well new motorcycle.
Needed a motorcycle asap as my other one was FUBAR. Didn't have cash saved up for new motorcycle or time to shop for best value. Bought a one year old bike for $8k out the door price. In and out of dealership with new bike in 1 hour. Got a 1 year loan for 0% interest. Everything went better than expected. Granted they were selling for 6k used so I paid a premium for convenience.

I'm gonna buy a new car next weekend and I'm doing it just for the credit. I could buy it straight out no prob but I guess that's not how credit works
Kayden Adams
Nice find. If you aren't brand loyal there is almost always a car like this on the market. My dad would trade BMW AUDI and Infiniti every two years because somebody would always buy a new M3 and decide he didnt like it before 10k miles.
Robert Williams
wow shes perfect except for that eye
William Diaz
Yeah, you're so wealthy buying your new mustang or mazda5 brand new.
Matthew Morgan
whats wrong with her eye?
yeah i think you guys are missing the point. Why pay the extra 30% just for a new car.
Carson Barnes
Americans, are you able to explain something to me?
How is it that you're all able to get outrageously low interest rates on car financing, like

But yeah. Your three cars totalling $9,000 and checking balance of $11,000 totally mean you're wealthy.

I believe it's a combination of laws regarding lending in ausland and that the per capita GDP of USA is 15x auslands so Americans plainly have more money.

Julian Brown
I bought my FiST brand new, only a few months after it launched in the US. I'd wanted a car like it for years, and there was nothing else comparable on the new or used market.
I got an excellent deal on it, too - I've seen a few used ones on dealer lots with asking prices higher than I paid for mine new - and I got an insane trade-in deal (9,500 for a car with a ~5,500 KBB value) and really good financing (1.9), too.
I also didn't want to wait for a used one because at that point the car had been selling REALLY badly in the US - hence the deal I got on mine - and I was seriously afraid they'd cancel the model and it'd become a "future collectible" that nobody wanted to let go of. We know now that sales took off and it's done decently well, but I don't regret buying mine when I did.
Owen Rogers
>car that's guaranteed to not have any defects or issues
This is the top idiotic misconception that leads people to financing new shitboxes. New cars have problems, even Toyotas. They are build by human hands, humans make mistakes, they are worked out after the car is driven for a bit and can be discovered and fixed under warranty. A year old car with 10-15k miles will always be more reliable than a brand new car.

It's a bit frustrating actually, wouldn't mind buying a new car but the interest rates here mean that pretty much 2/5th of the overall sum paid goes to the bank in interest over five years or so.
Blake Allen

Thats what I did. I dont get why people want to pay for their credit scores via interest when all you have to do is swipe a credit card and pay it with the money you already have the instant you use it.

He wanted that particular car. Not a used Crown Vic (which his company would have provided new anyway).

Jayden Rivera
Anybody buying a used car out of warranty has to be absolutely insane unless they have money to burn. Have fun driving your outdated shitbox while getting it fixed every few days and end up paying the same amount in maintenance as payments on a new car.
I lease every 36 months for the peace of mind. Car is always under warranty and I always have something new.
But it also depends on the vehicle and person I guess. My current DD will be 3 years old this year and I'll be trading it in once the warranty expires. On the other hand, my SO's car is a 2011 going on 6 years old and it's still a keeper.

Connor Roberts
My parents live in South Korea. Father bought his 05 C230 when new from his company lease. He still keeps and drives it at home after 12 years.
Mother wanted a new car, yet she only gets quoted something like KRW 8mil (equivalent to US$ 7200) trade in for her 03 Volvo S60 2.4. Father decides to use her S60 at his work, which is 500 kilometres away from home in the town where my grandmother lives in.
Fast forward to Dec 2014 Mother wants a new car Can lease from my dad's work Go to Audi dealer 2014 models are available for a discount She wants an A6 2.0 I tell her that she will dislike the 2.0 with 8 speed slushbox and hints her to get a 3.0 TDI with the 7 speed dual clutch instead >But... It's a Diesel I say >Mum you can test drive it and feel that it is not your stereotypical Diesel Dealer is a based bro and a car guy I talk with the dealer for a good two hours >I drive a Subaru and how I love it, how great the AWD is on snow... etc. (Lol I used to drive Forester) Dealer asks how much did I buy my car >$9000 Dealer says: >Oh I can guarantee that you will get a discount for more than KRW 10mil (US$ 9100) Deal
I move from the US to the UK, sold my car to a guy I know cos his 01 Jetta made by Gonzalez is breaking down after 400k miles I buy a 08 A3 2.0 TDI with a 6 speed manual for £2700 (US$ 3500) just cause I liked my mum's Diesel Audi
Benjamin Johnson
>buy used car that still has gms factory warranty for powertrain until end of year >41k miles >only 4 years old >paid 6800$

Noah Jones
Wut? Fucken foreigners man
Samuel Cooper
>I lease every 36 months >lease
Hudson Adams
Legitimate question. How do you justify leasing? I bought a new taco and my payments are 250. But i can lease a hemi challenget for about the same, if not a little less. My only problem with it is that at the end of the day, you never have anything to show for it cause you just have to return the car.
I guess its owning something vs cheaper payments/constant warranty
Colton Watson
With the potential risk of having to face the cost of replacing a cvt transmission, hybrid battery replacement or other expensive repairs of new cars today, It's a good idea to always buy new and only keep while under warranty.
Anthony Cooper
If you have good credit in the states you can get 0% financing though the manufacturer like VW Credit, GM Financial, etc.
if you mean it was a rental you are mistaken as fuck
rentals dont come with manual trans. and are almost always base model spec

lmao. you remind me of my dad >hurr I'm over 65 now so I have to live within pissing distance of a hospital since I'm scared shitless of dying >hurr I'm poor and have no healthcare but the doctors will definitely save my old ass >everyone not living inside the dome are literally eating corpses to survive and have no wealth or family >my dome house will be worth a gorjillion doller despite massive amounts of oldfags dying and millennials being complete uninterested in home ownership kys
Daniel Garcia
by the way people who have to rely on strangers for healthcare (retirement home) come to that conclusion because they've treated everyone in their family like dogshit and they know not one person will lift a fucking finger for them. meanwhile gramps gets to live in my house while he enjoys the remainder of his life because he wasn't a shitter to everyone around him. he's not poor either despite working in WV coal mines either. that's a generation before they pissed money away on games and phones though.
enjoy being "taken care of" by niggers and spics
Jonathan Jackson
>Have fun driving your outdated shitbox while getting it fixed every few days and end up paying the same amount in maintenance as payments on a new car. the most you would do with getting a shitbox at 50k miles is *maybe* the brakes then usually you don't have to worry about anything for 100k more miles besides fluid changes. What kinda cars are you looking into that shit breaks a lot?
Lucas Martin
you poor dipshits obviously don't understand how guarantees work
if a new car has a problem, it gets fixed for free and you get a rental in the meantime. if your used shitbox has a problem, you're shit outta luck

There you have it. Have you ever talked to a non-car person about used cars? They're convinced everything more than 5 years old is too old, and anything more than 15 years old is about to die.

SAFETY
why has noone mentioned this? too young to care or have expereicned crashes that teach you your life matters?
Newer cars have much better safety/crash features than 20 year-old shitbox Miatas, so I won't die and can go on living my life to enjoy more cars and women and sour gummy worms

Dude, the only reason older cars score worse in modern EuroNCAP is because they added the active safety to the rating. In the event of a crash you can't be much better than in a W140.

9/10 new cats in my country are paid via PCP or HP. This is for two reasons; One, buying a car is like buying a phone, people enjoy being able to swap for a new car every 2-3 years, and on the face of it is cheap. And two it allows people to purchase a car waaaaayyyyy beyond their means. You see so many Audi A7s or BMW X6s parked outside of households its unreal - In fact the big debate starting to brew is that so many cars are being bought by people that are actually worth more than their salary that it may cause an economic crash.

Alexander Garcia
>used car is better value
No, it's not.
One could even argue that used cars are a worse value because:
- The subprime auto bubble has inflated used car prices
- Better interest rates and incentives available for new vehicles.
A good is worth what the market will bear. The vehicle market is fairly efficient, you get what you pay for.
So basically you fail at economics and don't know shit.

I would only buy a new car if it was a custom order. I own a '94 supra twin turbo and will be ordering the new supra when it comes out in 2018. I am doing this because I want the car to be exactly how I want it.
Unless this is the case, leasing is a much better alternative. Depreciation is a bitch. Since I will probably never get rid of my car, depreciation isn't a factor.
