Used Car of the Day: 2007 Scion Tc
This may be a bit of bias on my part, as part of my dealer-world past involves working with Scion, but I always found the Tc to be an underrated FWD sports coupe.
Used Car of the Day: 2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS
Today's UCOTD comes to us from Montana. This 2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5RS might be a good way to get AWD for cheap -- if age and high mileage aren't a concern.
Used Car of the Day: 2015 BMW M4 Coupe
Today's used car of the day is a six-speed manual BMW that comes at a dear price.
Violated: Wisconsin Car Dealer Crosses an Unsanitary Line
This is a weird one. It's another "shady dealer" story, but unlike the alleged scam we covered yesterday, this one is just plain gross.
Used Car of the Day: 1983 Volkswagen Rabbit GTI
Today we're featuring a car entering its fourth decade of life -- and apparently, it's still in decent shape. Not everyone who is in their 40s can say that.
Dawgged: Idaho Dealership Customers Scream Scam
ByrdDawg Motors in Idaho is at the center of accusations that it has scammed customers.
One car buyer claims he was out $20,000.
Where Your Author Makes a Quick Purchase (and a Medium Length Trip)
Picture it. Last Tuesday, late afternoon. Checking the used convertible listings like I’d been doing for some time, it seemed the right car would never materialize. But on that particular afternoon, I happened to check Facebook Marketplace, a terrible place to search listings which I generally avoided. The default 249-mile search radius showed me a particular convertible I hadn’t seen listed before. Turned out it was the one.
Used Car of the Day: 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack SE
Another day, another wagon. Today's car-enthusiast catnip comes courtesy of Columbus, Ohio (home to many a TTAC'er) and this 2017 Volkswagen Alltrack has three pedals. Yay!
Where Your Author Still Hasn't Purchased a Used Convertible
Would you believe it’s been a year and a half since we last discussed used convertibles? Much has changed during the interim: The economy, the used-car market, and life in general. While some of you were fairly convinced I’d purchase a car “on the rebound” after I’d dumped the quality control nightmare that was the Golf SportWagen in July of 2021, you were wrong. Let’s catch up a bit.
Used Car of the Day: 1994 Jeep Cherokee
Today's used car of the day is a Jeep of a different feather. This 1994 Jeep Cherokee is cheap and ready for a good home.
EV Resale Values Are a Mystery
Have you ever thought about the resale value of electric vehicles? I admit I haven't thought about it as much as I probably should have. Apparently, I am not the only one who is a bit clueless about it -- it's a market mystery.
Used Car of the Day: 1973 Datsun 240Z
We've got another classic Z for you for today's Used Car of the Day. This 1973 Datsun 240Z is "mostly original" with an "unmolested" body and it commands $42,500.
TTAC Throwback 1989 Lincoln Town Car
Lincoln’s famous tagline was “What a Luxury Car Should be,” and as the proud owner of a 1989 Town Car, this writer has no desire to quibble with their ad copy. Indeed, it’s one of the best cars ever to grace my driveway. The Townie was acquired as a direct trade for a Honda Magna 750 motorcycle; I know which of the two has given me greater pleasure, and it has four doors and four wheels. Besides, the bike would’ve probably killed me.
Cox Forecasts Used Vehicle Pricing Trends for 2023
Wholesale used-vehicle prices continued to climb during the last weeks of 2022, though the overall trend actually had secondhand valuations down by 15 percent for the entire year. That’s due largely to auction prices cooling off after the summer ended and the situation has many speculating that 2023 could be the first year we see massively inflated car prices begin to return to normal.
