Cars To Cost More Despite Price Freeze
Despite the Nixon price freeze, 1972 models will cost more than new 1971 cars. Ford and GM maintain 1972 sticker prices at 1971 levels, while Chrysler and American Motors hold 1971 prices for 1972 models. Dealers report varied discounting on 1971 cars and cautious 1972 pricing, with concerns over the 7 percent excise tax repeal and how it will affect refunds to buyers.
