Automakers are offering fewer choices when it comes to purchasing new cars, and although the companies say it's with the best interests of the consumers in mind, it may limit the options available to buyers. Instead, prospective drivers may want to head to New Jersey State Auto<\/a> Auction and check out a wide variety of used cars to get what they really want.<\/p>\n

The trend of limiting options is one that has spread to many manufacturers, USA Today reports. In particular, the new Buick<\/a> Vernao is only available in 18 combinations of trims and other options. As for the Volkswagen<\/a> Passat, you may have been able to order in 148 versions of the car in previous years, but now it's only at 15.<\/p>\n

Some industry insiders say the new guidelines cut down on complexity, which makes the car-buying process a bit easier. However, others are not quite as optimistic when it comes to the new policy because, with few options for customization, they may get an excess of features.<\/p>\n

"You end up buying things you don't want or need in order to get things you do want or need," John O'Dell, a senior editor for car research site Edmunds.com, told the publication.<\/p>\n

Although many automakers are embracing the trend, such is not the case for Porsche. The luxury brand caters to a crowd the demands the ability to customize their car, and company officials say that limiting their ability to do so may actually slow down production.<\/p>\n

With limited options for some new cars, you may want to head to New Jersey State Auto Auction, which offers enough makes and models to suit the needs of even the most discerning shopper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
