The car situation comes from a few different angles.
There was a lot of flooding during the summer and it keeps seeming like a lot of cars are getting destroyed from various events. For instance the Corvette plant in Kentucky got hit by a tornado and a couple hundred cars had to be destroyed.
So production has been totally messed up with the chip shortage and usually you can get older cars for $1,000-$2,500. That doesn't really exist anymore. To get into something that runs and is dependable it is going to be more like $3,000 on the low end.
Trucks have been popular but for instance the Chevy Silverado has supply chain issues so they were building them and taking them to a parking lot but then the rats chewed the wires.
Also people have been targeting the luxury and exotic market. If you get clean examples of a car that had low import numbers and already went down its main depreciation curve.
Sports cards have been popular as well.
