But she now wishes she had spent the money differently. “I just really wanted a Tesla because it’s something my ex wouldn’t let me [have], and I regret buying that full price,” the 34-year-old tells CNBC Make It. “Huge mistake.” https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/28/why-buying-a-brand-new-tesla-was-a-huge-mistake.html Since peaking in December 2021, average new car prices began to drop slightly to about $46,000 in January and February 2022. Unfortunately, it’s unlikely that car prices will drop significantly this year due to the effects still felt by the COVID-19 pandemic (more on that below). If prices do continue to drop, they likely will be small changes until manufacturers can increase production or consumer demand levels out. https://www.thezebra.com/resources/driving/average-car-price/ From December 2020 to December 2021, car prices soared, spiking far higher than the already-high level of CPI inflation. New car prices increased by 11.7% and used cars increased by 37.2%. Meanwhile, overall inflation during the same time span was 7.1%. So car prices rose much faster than the overall increase in prices. https://perc.tamu.edu/blog/2024/02/price-trends-for-cars.htm Used Tesla price index - Want to track used Tesla vehicles over time?
