The current situation of incentives, subsidized leases and holdbacks is just dumb. This situation allows unscrupulous dealer to try and rip off uninformed buyers, it also produces the poor resale values (compared to the MSRP that nobody pays) that turns off potential crossover buyers before theyve got the whole story, and depending on this months figures those leasing may get a better deal than those buying or vice versa (although usually its leasing - which sucks if your state is one where private leases are unfairly taxed)
Just lower the published prices to a level where people will buy the cars, give dealers a reasonable spread between invoice and msrp,(but no incentives or holdbacks) and lease based on the same purchase price and realistic resale values. Simple, fair, transparent, real.
