Imagine you had to go thru a mortgage style application to get an auto loan. CDJR and Nissan will be outta business by 10am tomorrow!

Slow mode until tomorrow, folks (but allowing for “just” one hr btw posts).
Reminder to refrain from overt politics here (and anywhere on the board).
Thanks.

The thread is/was doing fine, no need to cry wolf as everyone was acting as if they were big boys and girls.

I did more cars in the last 2 days than ever before in 36 hours. Need a couple more flip flops on the tariffs they have really boosted March from a crappy Feb. At least 10 deals were people that mentioned tariff and cats built in Japan/mexico

Not sure who needs to hear this - 100% of the parts on GR Corolla is from Japan.
Will be hilarious if they don’t stick and a bunch of panic sales just occurred for no reason. Big auto wins again

No offense, but you have negative understanding of geopolitics and its corresponding consequences on the daily privileges of American life.

So…lots of winning, but on a bi-weekly plan basis?
Wtf?
That makes me want to sell everything I own.
I’ll take a Crunchwrap supreme combo with a Mountain Dew slushie and Doritos Locos taco combo pack as well. I can’t pay the whole thing rn, but I’ll send it back to you over the next year and 12 payments while paying an interest expense of 97 cents a month!
I really want to see what happens 4/2. I don’t think the auto market has any clarity for at a minimum 4 weeks, I’m truly hopeful 8 weeks, but that’s just hope. So happy to have at least 1 car locked for 2 more years, see how this shakes out. And if these hikes actually go through and then pass through to consumers, I think pieces of metal start piling up.
Yep, and they will throw in your black market Wegovy with that 10,000 calorie and financed order as well.

The 911 (all variants) has been selling at or above MSRP for four years running, with no end in sight. There are not enough “crypto bros” to have any effect on a car that had domestic sales of over 14,000 units in 2024. The 911 base model cracked $100k (excluding options) in 2021, and will be $130k for MY 2026. Yet, MSRP is still largely unattainable.
Now, whether a potential pending recession and a 25% tariff will cause demand to wane is difficult to predict. Certainly, the latter will cause used 911 prices (especially 992 variants) to remain high.
Now that my time in the sin bin is done. Can all of you PHD’s in Econ, Tariffs, Foreign imports etc, explain how Biden 100% tariff on Chinese EV’s, batteries and steel vs Trump 25% on all foreign vehicles was good vs Trump Bad?
Neither is good or bad in a vacuum. Depends which goals are being chased. But I think this forum universally likes cheaper foreign autos. Whether it Porsche or Nissan Ariya, TCO is going to increase (likely)
