That makes sense..though it assumes there aren't a ton of owners who currently are holding their 2008 or 2009 models (leased or financed for 48 or 60 months) in anticipation of the 2013 and will trade them in or dump them as soon as they can get their hands on the 2013. Upsetting the supply:demand and driving prices down further (just playing devil's advocate...)

Given your take, I do like the idea of being able to buy now and not have it drop by 30% in the first year alone...
