I spoke to Aaron, the dealership’s Used Car Manager, and while Aaron wasn’t sure if the car was still for sale, he confirmed to me that the listing was real and the dealership was indeed selling this car. The listing has been taken down, but I called the dealership to confirm. The dealership, Vic Vaughan Toyota of Boerne in Boerne, Texas (the dealership pronounces that like “Bernie”) actually had this car listed on its website. This comes to us thanks to Zerin Dube on Twitter. Take a look at this 1993 Honda Accord LX that is actually being sold by a Toyota dealership. And now we have another example of how bad things are. Even my favorite kinds of cars, German ones known for dubious reliability, have seemingly spiked in price. Cars that may have been $500 in the past can be far more expensive now. Not even the very low end of the market is safe from this madness. Or perhaps more incredible is the fact that Nissan is apparently willing to give its Certified Select CPO branding to non-Nissans, too. Just this morning, my colleague Thomas wrote about how Nissan will sell 10-year-old certified pre-owned Altimas. Look no further than our own reports about the state of the used car market. Prices on many used cars have, like many other things in this economy, risen dramatically, leading to some frankly wild headlines and even wilder dealership listings. Between chip shortages and demand outstripping new car supplies, dealerships and buyers alike have been storming to used cars. For $2,200.Īs often reported, the COVID-19 pandemic created a perfect storm for high car prices. Another example of this can be found in Texas, where a Toyota dealership is selling a worn down 1993 Honda Accord with 344,591 miles. Even beaters can’t escape this crazy car buying market. Some cars are hard to find and so many of them are priced into the stratosphere.

The estimated market price is calculated using live market pricing including the price of similar vehicles recently advertised on carsales and can vary from day-to-day.
