Interesting to consider, and I don't know which number to use, and there certainly are other factors, but I
think we should be looking at the 1 million (or whatever) cars pulled off the market in relationship to the total market for
cheap used cars.
I'm just speculating, I have no numbers, but Sarah was pointing to the price of
cheap old cars (affectionately called POS cars
) - so I think that market needs to be the denominator. I doubt that CfC had a measurable effect on the price of 1 year old BMWs.
I'll reserve the POS reference for the legislation and those who signed it, and no, I'm not using the term affectionately!
