Low interest rates
may prompt drop
in used car prices
DETROIT (AP) — Bargain-base
ment financing for new cars will
spark a dramatic drop in used-car
prices, and that will cut into sales by
the nation’s major automakers, in
dustry analysts said Tuesday.
Used-car dealers agree prices are
dropping, but caution customers not
to expect a steal.
“Whenever new-car prices come
down, every car in the fleet, all the
way down to the one going to the
junkyard tomorrow, reduces in va
lue,” said Arvid Jouppi, a Detroit au
tomotive analyst. “Used-car prices
will go down because of the surplus
created by the new-car sales.”
General Motors Corp. and Ford
Motor Co. last month began offering
2.9 percent interest rates in an effort
to clear the showrooms of 1986 cars.
Chrysler Corp. quickly followed
with 2.4 percent financing, and then
American Motors Corp., whose sales
this year have been running about
half those of a year before, weighed
in with interest-free loans on most
models.
The low rates will end Oct. 8, the
automakers said.
Jouppi estimated 1.5 million used
cars will rumble into the market as
owners trade them in for new-car
bargains.
The greater supply of used cars
and the need to compete with
cheaper new cars will shave as much
as 10 percent off used-car prices,
Jouppi said.
And lower used-car prices will
steer some buyers away from new
models, said David Healy, auto
motive analyst with the New York
brokerage house Drexel Burnham
Lambert.
“I figure that a 1 percent change
in used-car prices can swing new-car
sales by about 50,000 cars for the in
dustry on an annual basis,” Healy
said.
The domestic automakers sold 8.2
million cars last year.
Rick Cantalini, used-car manager
of King Charlie Hillard Ford-Mazda
in Fort Worth, Texas, said the extent
to which prices go down will depend
upon the car.
World Briefs
Reagan seeks funding for new shuttle
WASHINGTON (AP) —Presi
dent Reagan formally asked Con
gress Tuesday for money to re
store the space shuttle fleet to
four ships, even as the man he
picked to rehabilitate NASA de
clared “a fifth orbiter is absolutely
imperative.”
NASA Administrator James C.
Fletcher said a start on the fifth
ship “will have to be made in the
next year or two.”
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration also an
nounced the formation of a task
force to make recommendations
on how the station will be oper
ated.
3 die as plane crashes in Army airfield
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP)
— A Tennessee National Guard
transport plane crashed and
caught fire while trying to land
Tuesday, killing three people and
injuring two, authorities said.
The C-130 plane, with a crew
of five from the 118th Tactical
Airlift Command in Nashville
crashed at Campbell Army Air
Field about 2:10 p.m., said Capt.
Dan Schmidt, a Fort Campbell
spokesman.
The plane “apparently did not
hit the runway, but crashed while
attempting to land,” Schmidt
said. He said the transport was on
a training mission when it
crashed at the fort near the Ken-
tucky-Tennessee border.
Stock market fails for third day in row
NEW YORK (AP) — The stock
market had a third straight losing
session Tuesday after a strong
tone at the opening soured.
The Dow Jones average of 30
industrials fell 4.50 to 1,884.14.
Buyers at first rallied to the blue
chips and the average rose more
than 12 points. But the buyers
lost interest and the blue chip in
dicator fell as it has each session
since last Thursday when it
reached a record closing high of
1,919.71.
Western Air Lines was the vol
ume leader with more than 4.1
million shares traded, due to ru
mours they had received a take
over offer from Delta Air Lines.
No rise predicted for crude oil buying
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Energy Department won’t speed
up purchase of crude oil for the
Strategic Petroleum Reserve un
less prices fall, Secretary John S.
Herrington said Tuesday.
And while the department is
soliciting bids from domestic pro
ducers, it is still discussing terms
with Mexico, the most recent sup- -
plier to the 505-million-barrel re
serve in salt domes on the Gulf
coasts of Texas and Louisiana,
Herrington said.
He told reporters he would like
to be adding to the reserve at
100,000 barrels a day, the practi
cal limit of intake capacity, but
“the price may be a little high to
go to that large a purchase.”
