The other thing I think we all kind of "forget about" when selling - or buying.
If the prices are lower "in general" for cars... and you're seeing lots of pretty damn nice cars that have asking prices FAR lower than they might have asked 2 years ago... but if you can sell your 150K car for "only" 100K now - but you can BUY the car you wanted to upgrade to for a lot less... then everything is good! Like houses - yeah - you can't get what the thing was worth at the peak - but you know what - you're not buying your new place at the peak either - so it's a wash in my opinion.
THANKS FOR POINTING OUT THE CAMARO ISN'T FIVE YEARS OLD -- I didn't see that detail either - my bad!
The point I was trying to make on the PRO BUILT uber high dollar cars -- Ring - Trepanier - et al - is that when I spend half a million bucks on a car - I want it to be MY CAR - not someone else's car - and I want the glory and the trophies that come with a build like that... I was not saying that they shouldn't cost that much - or that they should be built cheaper... In fact if we didn't have cars like that - we'd have nothing to shoot for and nothing to dream about. I was just sayin' that if I spent that kind of dough on a car - or anything else for that matter - I want it to be MY WAY... I want it the color I want - the interior I want - the wheels I want - and I want the FUN that goes with dreamin' and schemin' with the builder etc.
