It could be a lot more difficult to get the price you want to pay on a used car, because apparently the markup is small, correct? And this isn't exactly a buyer's market right now.
One challenge with the Kia Soul is color. The only Soul colors I can tolerate are red and blue, and there are very few of those on the market. Looking at new cars on the road today, it seems that (thank God) the era of black, white, and gray/silver as the only colors available is over and there are a lot more reds, blues, etc. The Kia Soul colors have always been lousy. Alien green, anybody? Orange?
