With the new 2014 price drop, will the 2013s also have a price drop and come in below the 2014? The dealers would lose money but it seems stupid to charge more for an older year model than it does for a new model?
What do you think? What would you offer for a 2013 base Auto

If a dealer has that many on the lot they simply won't order any 2014s until the 13s are gone. They'll offer a slightly better deal on the 13s but they won't go out of their way to get you a 14. And if you order one through them you'll certainly pay MSRP or more. Just hang loose until the 14s are out in full force and you no longer see the 13s. Dealers may even do some crap like "market adjusted value" to raise the price of the 14s if they still have 13s on the lot in order to get rid of them.
Just sayin'... watch for more scams, tactics, and BS than normal if you are trying to buy new in the next few months.
