eastcoastxxi asked:


Im working on my car, a project, ( no i’m not a thief) lol. I see that its for safety say for when ur up a hill, and ofcourse anti-theft reasons.
If the newr cars today have them, how come u just hear of them jus hot wiring the car and they go? They do it so quick, u never hear of them breaking the steerin lock.

CarDesigner2020 asked:


He knows all about cars, and I was thinking of getting him a used car as a present. My budget is around $13,000. I think that he would want a stick, possibly even all-wheel drive. The car can not be slow. Also, the car can not be too small (example: Miata or MR2 Spyder.) If the car has to be auto, it has to have tip-tronic or a gearbox in which you can somehow choose what gear you would like to be in. Thank you for the imput, it is helpful comming from a second source.

Has anyone ever heard of a NEW car pick-a-part or a wreck yard for totaled new cars?

Danny G asked:


I used to live at my local Pick-A-Part. At my local salvage yards there is nothing newer than a 1994/5. I have a 2001 Sentra and I need a driver side mirror. I see brand new cars totaled all the time. What do they do with them? I just want one of their mirrors.

How much are new cars marked up from dealerships?

PlasticTrees asked:


My boyfriend works at one and I’m just wondering (he’s not too sure, he just takes the $ they give him). **Dealerships have their markups but used cars are a much better profit because he gets around 40% comm**. So with new cars the dealership buys them from Dodge etc, and resells them an barely makes $. How much do you think they mark it up?

My boyfriend makes 20% regardless off of what their profit it, and I’m just wondering if anyone knows the appx markup value to the MSRP.

katlin j asked:


For example:The dealership has alot of brand new 2008 dodge chargers and 5 years from now none of them are sold, they will have to make space for the newer models(2013-14) to be showcase. So what do they do with them and how much will the price drop each year because of deprecation?
