October – December used vehicle price forecast NADA believes that despite the contentiousness of the budget and debt ceiling debates currently roiling the Federal Government, used vehicle prices will remain relatively unscathed over the coming months. While consumer confidence slipped some in September, it remains well above levels recorded in the first quarter of this year. In addition, the economy is much less fragile today than it was in 2011, or the last time political leaders failed to reach a compromise on the debt ceiling causing consumer confidence – and used vehicle prices – to nose-dive.

Used Car Guide Update (continued…) Likewise, the underlying fundamentals supporting auto demand are also predominantly positive. Consumer purchases are being dictated less by want and more by the sense that a new or newer pre-owned vehicle is needed because the current one is too old, credit terms and availability remain very favorable, the housing market continues to recover and gasoline prices are reasonably stable. To be sure, the uncertainty emanating from Washington will adversely affect both government and furloughed employee spending, and will make businesses more cautious in their approach to hiring; however, it would take a prolonged budget impasse to materially derail auto demand and thus, used vehicle prices. While a drawn out government—and to a lesser extent economic—shutdown is a real possibility, the frustration that taxpayers, businesses, and debt holders have towards the lack of political compromise, as well as the lessons learned from 2011’s U.S. debt downgrade following a similar debt ceiling confrontation, should apply pressure significant enough to force lawmakers to end the ordeals before they inflict scarring damage. Considering these points, NADA still expects that depreciation will be just slightly more pronounced than what was observed over 2012’s atypically strong fourth quarter, with used vehicle prices dropping by an average of 1.6%-to-2.0% per month over the period. On a full-year basis, used vehicle prices are still scheduled to finish the year from 0.5%-to-1.0% higher than 2012’s record level.

Notable October guidebook movement As far as October is concerned, trade-in values in the month’s edition of the Official Used Car Guide® were reduced by a mild average of 1.4%. Adjustments followed a familiar pattern with car trade-in values being hit more severely than those of trucks (down 1.6% and 1.0%, respectively). Steep reductions on certain higher-volume luxury compact cars – particularly late-model versions of the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G – helped to drive overall segment values down by a pronounced 2.5%. Similarly, downward adjustments on late-model BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E Class models averaging 2.7% were largely responsible for 2.3% luxury mid-size car segment decline. Values for the majority of remaining car segments were dropped by averages of less than 2.0%; mid-size and compact car values were adjusted down by averages of 1.4% and 1.6%, respectively, while large car values slipped a scant 0.4%. As for trucks, steep adjustments on 2009-2010 model year units helped to bring values for the mid-size van segment down by a combined average of nearly 1.8% - the most of any truck segment. With respective value adjustments of 1.6% and 1.4%, large and mid-size SUV reductions followed vans in terms of severity, while at the opposite end of the spectrum only 0.4% was shaved off of large pickup trade-in values. Since January, trade-in values for mid-size and large pickups have declined by slim averages of just 3.7% and 4.1%, respectively, or nearly three times less than the 11% drop recorded for compact car values over the period. To put this into perspective, used vehicles typically lose about 1.5% of their value each month simply from aging and the accumulation of mileage. But through October’s edition, large pickup trade-in values have dropped by a monthly average of just 0.4% since January, while mid-size pickup adjustments have averaged an even more minuscule 0.3%.

Used Car Guide Update (continued…) Essentially pickups have only barely resembled depreciating assets this year; in many cases in fact, consumers driving fewer miles than the industry average will have seen trade-in values on their pickup increase because values haven’t been falling enough to compensate for the added benefit of low mileage.

Auction volume ticks up in September, ‘13MY volume continues to rise The number of AuctionNet® wholesale auction transactions collected for vehicles up to eight model years in age grew by a slight 0.3% over the four-week period ending the week of September 29th. This followed a decline of 2.2% in August. Last month’s rise in auction transactions was primarily due to a 24% increase in the number of 2013 model year units hitting the lanes as volume for other model years save 2011 (+1%) was either flat or declined. Relative to 2012, the number of one-to-eight year old AuctionNet® transactions collected through September remained down by 2.0%, with the number of units up to four years in age 10% higher year-to-date and 14% lower for the number AuctionNet® Auction Volume: 4-Week Change of units from five-to-eight years in age. As far as one-year-old units are concerned, interestingly there has been a 95%, or 2,444 unit increase, in luxury mid-size utility transactions so far this year, driven largely by a 1,043 unit rise in 2013MY Lincoln MKT and

Used Car Guide Update (continued…) Despite Chrysler Group LLC’s seemingly quiet month with a relatively flat sales increase of 0.6% and just below 142,000 deliveries, the company actually posted a solid result with a 9.3% rise in its DSR. The automaker exhibited growth nearly across the board as its Chrysler, Dodge and Ram brands saw sales increases of 2%, 3% and 8%, respectively, while Jeep deliveries declined by 5% as a result of continuous delays to its all-new Jeep Cherokee, whose Liberty predecessor sold 5,646 units last year.

Foreign brands post mixed results, German luxury brands push forward Japanese automakers had a relatively down month as sales slid 5.5% and Subaru was the only brand to realize positive growth, up 14.7% and tallying 31,755 sales. Recent struggles for Hyundai and Kia Motors continued as they combined to sell 13.9% fewer units than their 108,000 haul last year. Germany, up 0.4%, was the industry’s biggest winner in September as its luxury brands enjoyed a 7.1% jump to offset Volkswagen’s 12.2% plunge. Toyota Motor Sales had a relatively decent month as its DSR improved by 4% even though its total sales fell by 4.3% to 164,000 units. The Toyota and Lexus brands may have seen their sales decline by 3% and 4%, respectively, but their daily sales rates rose by 4% and 4.1%, respectively. Scion, however, fell behind further with 24% less deliveries despite positive buzz from its FR-S sports car, which was up 8.6% and was the only model to exhibit a sales increase. September was a surprisingly down month for American Honda Motor Co., whose overall sales dropped by 9.9% from its 117,000 units a year ago. Acura had a particularly poor month, with sales falling 19% and a daily sales rate that decreased by 11.9%. The Honda brand meanwhile was not as bad considering its DSR was only down 0.7%, in spite of its total sales declining by 9% and finishing the month at 94,000 units. Nissan North America realized a sales decrease of 5.5% and ended the month at 87,000 deliveries as its Nissan and Infiniti brands slid by 6% and 4%, respectively. However, things were not as bad as they appear considering the Nissan brand’s daily sales rate improved by 2.6% and Infiniti’s rose by 4%. Subaru was the lone shining star among all of the Asian brands and its scorching hot streak continues to catch the attention of the industry. The automaker’s sales surge was made possible by an incredible 24.7% increase in its daily sales rate, which is 23.8 percentage points better than the combined DSR for all Asian brands. Buyers have also been drawn to the brand’s all-new XV Crosstrek, which picked up 3,344 more sales than last year while the ever-popular Forester collected 10,620 sales, up 75.1%. German luxury brands had a very strong month with Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi sales up 8%, 8% and 6%, respectively, totaling over 63,000 deliveries. Their DSRs highlighted their success as the brands combined to sell 16.2% more vehicles per day than last year. Mercedes also had 3% bump over last month, making it the only brand in the industry to hold that distinction thanks to its E Class and M Class, which were up 17% and 30.4%, respectively. Meanwhile, BMW rode the successes of its 3 Series, 5 Series and X5 models, which improved by 10.1%, 12.1%, and 21.7%, respectively. While having ceased production of its last generation A3, Audi still had a good month as its A4 and Q5 led the charge, up 28.8% and 44.9%, respectively.

Hyundai and Kia falling behind the competition The Korean automakers have made tremendous strides over the years with regards to improving their quality, reputation and vehicle designs, which have translated directly to impressive sales performances particularly over the past handful of years.

Used Car Guide Update (continued…) With new, eye-catching styling and extremely competitive warranty programs backed by aggressive marketing campaigns, the Hyundai and Kia brands have transformed themselves into legitimate players in the automotive market. There is reason to believe the momentum built up over the years has begun to diminish as although the overall industry has continued to grow, the Koreans have struggled to keep up. Through September 2013, Korean automakers have combined to sell 964,601 vehicles, down 1% from last year’s 974,728 deliveries, despite the industry expanding by 8.1%. In comparison, their Asian counterparts from Japan have done even better in the U.S. market, with year-over-year growth of 8.9%, which further puts into perspective how much the Koreans are falling behind these days. While Hyundai is up a modest 1.6%, seven out of its 10 models are exhibiting sales decreases and deliveries of its highest-selling vehicle, the Sonata mid-size sedan, have declined by 12.9%. Meanwhile, aside from Kia’s all-new Cadenza, which was released over the summer, five out of the brand’s seven models are down this year while the volume-leading Optima midsize sedan is up 8.1%. Over the past few years, both companies focused on retail sales and greatly limited the amount of fleet business they did, but the trend is reversing this year as consumer sales have fallen. Per data from Automotive News, Hyundai and Kia have combined sold 138,600 fleet units so far this year, accounting for 14% of all sales, which is startling considering they sold only 91,200 fleet vehicles during the same period last year when fleet comprised 9% of total sales. Thus, retail business has declined by 7% compared to 52% growth in fleet sales for the two brands. The yearover-year percent change for both retail and fleet are the worst amongst the top seven automakers who collectively, excluding Hyundai-Kia, sold 11.4% more retail vehicles and 0.4% fewer fleet units. This data reveals that the Koreans are increasingly reliant on fleet business but are still seeing their overall sales decline while the industry continues ahead. Hyundai and Kia have both become formidable players in the automotive business after years of flying under the radar, but are now faced with the challenge of maintaining the success they have already achieved.

Incentive spending decreases to lowest level since January Average incentive spending, per Autodata, has exhibited a decline since June’s high of $2,700 and September continued the trend as spending fell to $2,484. With that being said, manufacturers spent 2.7% more on incentives this September than they did in 2012, which is a result that pushed year-to-date incentive growth up to 2.0%.

On the other hand, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Porsche saw spending decrease by 15.4%, 20.9% and 21.8%, respectively. Use of finance subvention continued to decline industry-wide, down 4.7% on a prior-year basis, but lease subvention rose for the first time since February, up 5.3%. Following the trend from the past several months, customer cash usage rose by 5.4% in September, although it was the lowest year-over-year increase since March.

Economic Update As the start of fiscal year 2014 approaches, once again partisan squabbling has created uncertainty about the outlook for fiscal policy. The political stare-down on Capitol Hill shows no signs of easing, leaving federal government functions, including informational websites, national parks and processing veterans' claims in limbo from coast to coast beginning October 1st. Lawmakers in both parties ominously suggested the partial shutdown might last for weeks. A continuation of the automatic spending cuts under sequestration, including unpaid furloughs for federal workers, would be a drag on growth in the last quarter of 2013 and into 2014. Uncertainty over fiscal policy is one of the reasons why the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) left monetary policy unchanged at its mid-September meeting. Currently the Federal Reserve is purchasing $85 billion of long-term Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities a month in an attempt to push down long-term interest rates, including mortgage rates. Investors had expected the FOMC to start dialing back these purchases at their most recent meeting. The anticipated reduction in bond purchases is one of the reasons why the yield on 10-year Treasury bonds had risen from 1.66% in early May to 2.98% in early September. But with slower job growth over the past few months, inflation still well below the FOMC’s 2% target, and the drag on the economy resulting from tighter fiscal policy, the FOMC surprised financial markets and voted to maintain the current pace of purchases. Yields on 10-year Treasuries immediately fell by about 0.15 percentage points, and the S&P 500 hit a record high. The FOMC is likely to vote to reduce its purchases of long-term assets at either its late-October or mid-December meetings, before Ben Bernanke’s tenure as Chairman ends in January 2014.

Economic Update (continued...) New home sales rose 7.9% in August to 421,000 at a seasonally-adjusted annualized rate, up from 390,000 in July (revised down from 394,000). Although sales increased in August, they were still well below their average of 446,000 per month over the first half of 2013. Higher mortgage rates have weighed on sales of new homes over the past few months. Sales rose in three of the four regions in August, with the only decline in the West. Tight inventories are also weighing on new home sales: the supply of homes for sale was 5.0 months in August at the current sales pace, down from 5.2 months in July, although this is an increase from earlier in the year.

Economic Update (continued...) The U.S. average retail price of regular gasoline decreased 7 cents to $3.43 per gallon as of September 30, 2013, 38 cents lower than last year at this time, and the lowest price since January 28, 2013. Prices were down in all regions of the nation, with the largest decrease coming in the Midwest, where the price lost 11 cents to $3.35 per gallon. The national average diesel fuel price decreased 3 cents for a second consecutive week, to $3.92 per gallon, 16 cents lower than last year at this time. Prices decreased in all regions of the nation, with both the Midwest and West Coast prices dropping 4 cents, to $3.89 per gallon and $4.08 per gallon, respectively. Consumer confidence fell in September, according to the Conference Board. The index dropped 2.1 points to 79.7, the lowest level for confidence since May. While the present conditions component rose 2.3 points, making up most of its August decline, the expectations component fell 4.9 points, to its lowest level since May. It could be that concern over a potential government shutdown and whether Congress will raise the debt limit are weighing on consumers’ views about the near-term outlook. One positive is that consumers were slightly more optimistic about the job market in September compared to August; on net, however, people are still not convinced that jobs are plentiful. Similarly, consumers were more positive about business conditions in September compared to August, but also expect business conditions to worsen over the next six months. New orders for durable goods rose 0.1% in August, according to the Census Bureau, following an 8.1% drop in July. Transportation orders rose 0.7%, led by motor vehicles and parts. Orders for core capital goods—nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft—were up 1.5% in August, after a 3.3% decline in July. Manufacturing is expanding at roughly the same pace as the overall economy, after lagging behind in early 2013. Motor vehicle sales have returned to their pre-recession levels, leading growth in manufacturing. The durable goods and new home sales data are consistent with overall moderate economic growth in the third quarter. Growth in business investment has improved from earlier in the year and the housing recovery continues, despite the drag from higher interest rates. A potential government shutdown and uncertainty over an increase in the debt limit are weighing on consumer and business confidence right now, but assuming those issues are resolved, growth should pick up in late 2013 and strengthen further in 2014.
