Best and Worst Cars to Negotiate: April 2011
It was a record sales month for many automakers which is good news for car dealers, but not so-good news for car buyers.
It's definitely starting to become a seller's market, especially with the shortages resulting from Japan's disaster last month.
The average number of days it took to sell a car increased slightly to 48 days. 60 days is considered normal, so there's currently a shortage of vehicles.
Let's take a look at some of the best and worst cars when it comes to price flexibility:
