Some cars, like the Dodge<\/a> Viper or the Honda<\/a> Odyssey, may never go out of style, but the same is not true for every vehicle. Many models are discontinued because they're not selling as well as hoped, and often automakers do so to replace them with similar vehicles. Production of the Chevy Cobalt, for instance, was stopped to make room for the Cruze in 2009.<\/p>\n

Kelley Blue Book reports this year there are 10 models from the 2012 lineup saying farewell, including the Dodge Caliber, Kia<\/a> Sedona, GMC<\/a> Canyon and Chevrolet<\/a> Colorado. Mitsubishi<\/a> is discontinuing two models – the Eclipse and the Gallant, Mazda<\/a> will no longer make the CX-7 and Hyundai<\/a> says goodbye to the Veracruz. Two luxury automakers, Lexus<\/a> and Mercedes-Benz<\/a>, are also stopping production on the HS Hybrid and the R-Class, respectively.<\/p>\n

"While we don't necessarily subscribe to the ancient prediction of the world ending later this year, the world will come to an end for several vehicles that will not make it beyond 2012," said Jack R. Nerad, executive editorial director and market analyst for Kelley Blue Book's kbb.com. "Because 2012 marks the final year of these 10 models, savvy in-market consumers likely can swing really good deals on some of the cars we identify. In addition, the automakers that produce them are making interesting changes in their new-car lineups to fill the space left by these departing models."<\/p>\n

When a manufacturer discontinues a particular model, drivers can still find previously-owned versions at car dealerships in New Jersey like New Jersey State Auto<\/a> Auction. With a wide variety of makes and models, the dealer is sure to have the discontinued car of your dreams. Plus, every vehicle on the lot if CARFAX certified, so you know you'll be driving away in a reliable ride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
