IF YOU CAN FIND THE NEW CAR YOU WANT, BE PREPARED TO PAY STICKER PRICE… OR MORE. By Stephen Fasano, Director of Research and Strategy for Synergy Media
P
eople are back out buying cars and doing so in big numbers. Auto manufacturers are posting record sales numbers as post-pandemic economic optimism is taking over in major categories like housing and automobiles. But just like housing, demand is up, and inventory is down. Way down. The auto market has a supply problem, and it’s making car shopping very difficult. The reason is because of a tiny component, called a microchip. Microchips are found in nearly everything we use. Cell phones, laptops, washers and dryers, refrigerators, radios, thermostats, medical equipment and so much more. Some of these items use dozens of chips, some even use hundreds. But a typical new car has about three thousand. Back when the pandemic first started, chipmakers thought sales of consumer goods would slow, so they laid off workers, cut production and even closed some of their factories. And more importantly, they thought the sales of big-ticket items, like automobiles, would plummet. So not only did they cut overall output, but they also switched much of that output from chips for automobiles to chips for gaming, cell phones and other electronics. And they were partially right. As people stayed home, they needed to set up home offices and home school setups. They also bought new laptops, new TVs and gaming consoles. And because of that switch, we’ve seen little effect so far on consumer electronics supply. But the auto industry is a different story. While in the first couple of months of the pandemic, auto sales did indeed slow down, they’ve come roaring back. With the optimism that we’re past the worst of the pandemic, auto demand is sharply up. But chip factories can’t just switch back overnight. It’s a process that takes time, and even as they start producing more, the huge backlog in the supply chain means there’s no way they can keep up with demand.
close to what we normally would make selling ten even with a discount. It’s a difficult situation for everyone involved.” That’s true for dealers, and it’s true for manufacturers too. General Motors, one of the larger global automakers affected, just announced that they’ll likely lose about two billion dollars because of the shortage. We’ve done some research on current dealer markups (an amount added above the MSRP), and the highest we can find on a mainstream brand nationally is $18,000. That’s on one of the industry’s most popular models, the Kia Telluride. But markups of up to $5000 seem to be fairly common, even on less popular models when there’s just not a lot of inventory. The chip shortage has affected the pre-owned auto industry too. With the shortage of new cars, some people are switching to late model used cars. But the issue there is the same-no inventory and higher prices. With fewer people able to find a new car, there are fewer trade-ins. Combine that with more people looking for good used cars (because they can’t find new cars) and the problem is just exacerbated.
Congress is trying to intervene, but there’s no easy answer. No Some people have thought that waiting it out is the best strategy. matter what happens, expect any solution to take months-if not That prices will return to normal in a few months and they can longer, to actually start filling the supply lines again. get a better deal when all this shortage is over. But there are a few issues with that thinking. First, if you have a trade in, Meanwhile, there are millions of people who want, or need, you’ve got a huge benefit right now because your trade is worth a new car. With leases expiring, or an old car that needs more than it would normally be (because of the previously replacing, for many there’s just no choice. Plus, people are mentioned shortage of pre-owned vehicles). So the difference, more optimistic about their job prospects now that things seem the actual price you pay, could easily be more later, when the to be getting somewhat back to normal. Combine those factors trade in market gets back to normal. Secondly, interest rates with record low interest rates and the typical spring market and are still low. Very low. And as the economy heats up, many you’ve got a problem. economic experts predict that interest rates will increase. So, you’ll likely be paying more in a purchase or lease payment, A recent CNN headline reads “Prepare to pay the sticker price even if you’re able to negotiate a lower price. if you’re looking for a car”, and they’re right. In many cases, dealers are charging over sticker price because demand is so This inventory issue is going to get worse before it gets better. far ahead of supply. We spoke to the Vice President of a local There will be months this summer where if you’re looking for a dealer group who said “It’s just simple economics. When we’ve particular model, dealers will have none, and if you need a car, got twenty of a particular model, and there are only 10 people you’ll have to buy something that wasn’t your first choice, or who want them this month, we obviously discount them. But maybe even your second choice. when there are 10 people who want that model, and we only have two, it’s very difficult to justify a discount. In some cases There’s no easy answer. But if you’re in the market for a car, there’s even a markup over sticker price. People think that with and you find the year, make, model you want, you’re likely best no discounts the dealer is making more money. But the reality off to just take the plunge. Besides, you’ve just gone through a is that two at list price, or even over list price- doesn’t come difficult year, and you deserve it.

Jared Rubin 2010 Dodge Challenger RT
J
ared Rubin owns a 2010 Dodge Challenger RT. It’s silver with black interior, and has the 5.7 liter V8 with 372 horsepower and 400 lb/ft of torque. It does 0-60 in 5.1 seconds and covers the quarter mile in 13.6 seconds 104.9 mph and had an original MSRP of about $36,000 He bought it with 55,000 miles on it and has kept it mostly stock other than adding a Flowmaster exhaust and Mopar stage 1 lowering springs. His favorite part of the car is that it’s what he calls “analog”. It’s a six speed manual, and has minimal driver assistance features. It has some creature comforts like navigation and heated seats, it’s still a classic Muscle Car. Jared’s pretty well versed in the auto industry too. He spent seven years working for the well-respected Benoit Brothers at the Anchor Auto Group in North Smithfield as the
business manager. “Those were great years” he says “I really loved working for the Benoits and learned a lot from them”. His current position is at the Pawtucket Credit Union where he’s one of two Dealer Relationship Managers. He helps dealers in Rhode Island and Southeastern Mass with their financing. It’s what’s called “indirect lending”, where the bank or credit union is the finance source for dealers customers. The fact that I was a business manager for seven years allowed me to take this position with a depth of knowledge of what dealers and their customers need” he said. “Dealers want their customers to have easy access to financing, quick turnaround and low rates”. Jared’s owned some interesting cars, from IROC Z’s to a BMW M3. He keeps his Challenger for weekends and special events, and plans on holding onto it for a while. l

It’s no surprise that most major repairs are needed after the original factory warranty has expired, which means you will have to deal with all the inconvenience, time, energy and expense of those repairs. Depending on the age and mileage of your vehicle, you can purchase up to 120,000 miles of coverage. The Vehicle Service Contract begins on the purchase date and expires according to the term and mileage selected, whichever occurs first, and may include a deductible depending on the option selected. You can select from a national network of over 6,000 authorized service centers or any licensed repair facility in the U.S. or Canada.
