What It's Actually Worth

Blended value of a standard 5 yr, 0k mi example, ~$139K now. The green line weighs confirmed auction sales most heavily (the amber dots — what cars actually hammered for), blends in fast-selling "just-missed" listings, and lightly smooths out month-to-month composition noise.

Lead Indicator Forecast

Some indicators move before this market does. Unemployment Rate has historically led it by about 4 months — so its recent move implies where prices head next (dashed). The solid green line is actual value through today; the shaded path is what the lead implies.

$141K now +4mo 2018-03 $189K $125K
BECAUSE Unemployment Rate fell 5%. THEREFORE, given its usual 4-month head start, we lean UP — about +2% (≈ +$2,091) over the next 4 months. Confidence: High (correlation -0.81, 58 months overlap).

Crystal Ball — What Leading Indicators Signal

Distinct from the trend forecast above: this blends all 8 leading indicators (each at its own lead time, de-duplicated so correlated ones don't double-count) into one signal. Leading indicators are collectively signaling higher over the next ~12 months (high conviction — 75% of weighted drivers agree), driven mainly by Unemployment Rate and 30-Year Mortgage Rate, though US Regular Gas Price points the other way.

Trend and leading indicators agree — both point up. Higher-conviction read.

If You’d Bought in 2018

Lost ground to inflation. The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon roughly 0.9×'d your money (a real 30% LOSS to inflation). It LAGGED the stock market by about 73% — the same money in the S&P 500 would be larger. It trailed housing (-45%). (Price only — a real round-trip also loses ~10–20% to buy/sell fees and carrying costs.)
