If we end up in a recession and people default their existing loans these dealership pigs will get slaughtered as they well deserve

We've been in a recession for months and it will only get worse. Massive layoffs in America is happening already

Hmm I'm in IT and people still reaching out for hiring. Maybe it will all fall apart at some point. Not sure we're in a recession though. Whatever else is going on, there are a lot of people throwing money around at vehicles. Maybe there are two economies, and two tiers of society.

I'm in Finance. Even though we are not in recession "official" yet, but it remains a real risk as the inflation remains too high, negative GDP, Feds raising interest rates, the stock market is s***, half of US companies are gearing up for layoffs. Look at Ford, they just laid off 3,000. Tech companies are taking a hit too.

The criteria for a recession seems to have slightly changed. We are not exhibiting all the classic symptoms of a recession as has happened in the past.

Low unemployment, job creation, and falling utility and fuel prices are not normally seen in a traditional recession.

I see the current dangers are supply chain issues due to existing COVID protocols in manufacturing and supplier countries, pent-up buying by higher income households in first-tier economies, and the resulting inflation caused by the first two issues.

This has all been caused by a once in a century health emergency in which we were not prepared and was mismanaged from the beginning.

It's going to be a tough couple of years for the average consumer.

Auto companies are transitioning to an EV world. Ford's recent layoffs are a result of the transition.

Yep, agree with you. As part of reducing inflation, the fed will likely need to impact the employment picture to reduce people's spending and start to slow demand so that prices begin to stabilize and decrease. The next 12-24 months will be interesting - especially since nothing economically has been "normal", or what was predicted.

Going to be a bunch of used ones for sale as the Z06 gets out there too. Bet 90% of Z06 buyers have a c8 now

That's how it always goes, the best time to get a deal on a base is when the Zs come out.

Guys remember this is a NISSAN not a Porsche. Therefore, we must pay a $30-50k markup at minimum. What's a GT3RS compared to a Proto Z, The Porsche ain't even in the same league smh.
