This is the Wrong Year to Buy a Car

Consumer Reports is now saying that unless you need a new car now is not the time to make a buy. Some models are so hard to come by that consumers are paying well above the sticker price for them. Many do not even have a good rating by CR.

Many of my local dealers have very limited selection of popular brands like Honda and Toyota. Some dealers have no cars of some models. This situation has driven up the price of used cars.

Here is a list of cars being sold at substantial prices over MSRP window stickers according to Consumer Reports.

Kia Rio: 21% Over MSRP

Hyundai Accent: 19% Over MSRP

Chevrolet Spark: 19% Over MSRP

Kia Telluride: 19% Over MSRP

Chevrolet Camaro: 18% Over MSRP

Subaru Crosstrek: 18% Over MSRP

Kia Seltos: 18% Over MSRP

Kia Sorento: 18% Over MSRP

Hyundai Tucson: 18% Over MSRP

Kia Carnival: 17% Over MSRP
