This Porsche 928 S4 Is a Time Capsule

This Gullwing Could Break Auction Records

A 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL ‘Gullwing’—aka one of the most drool-worthy classics ever—is about to hit the auction block and could fetch over $1.5 million! This isn’t just any old ride: it was built for the Geneva Auto Show, survived a wild accident, and spent decades as a cherished collectible in Mexico. Now, it’s restored and ready to be the crown jewel of someone’s collection. Imagine rolling up in this piece of automotive history! #Cars #BuyingCar #CarGoals

Why Cheap Cars Are Vanishing Fast

Finding a new car under $30K? Practically a unicorn these days! In 2020, over a third of new cars were under $30K, but now it’s just 12%. Blame inflation, chip shortages, and looming tariffs—everyone’s scrambling for the last affordable rides. Even used cars are pricier, with older models and higher mileage becoming the norm. If you spot a deal, grab it—these bargains are disappearing fast! #Cars #BuyingCar #CarShopping

$1,000+ Car Payments Are the New Normal?!

One in five people are now dropping over $1,000 a month just to drive their new car—wild, right? And get this: a record number are signing up for 7-year loans just to make it work. The average new car loan is now over $42k, and down payments are actually shrinking. Even used cars aren’t a total escape, with sky-high interest rates making those monthly payments sting. Is car shopping officially out of control? #Cars #BuyingCar #CarPayments

Car Shopping Feels Like a Total Headache

Anyone else feel like buying a car is way more stressful than it should be? New data says car buyers in June were seriously over it—satisfaction dropped big time, especially with all the confusing finance stuff and surprise add-ons. Only 53% thought the credit part was easy, and people are settling for cars they don’t even want just to get it over with. Plus, the whole process is taking longer than ever. If you’ve walked out of a dealership frustrated lately, you’re definitely not alone! #Cars #BuyingCar #CarBuying
