Already happening. I see your still in CA. The CA rules on not having to smog older cars and the scarcity of new ones, seems to be resulting in tremendous demand for used cars. Add in crazy (and frightening) inflation and you have the "perfect storm". My old 2004 Dodge Ram can be sold for 2/3+ of what it sold for new due to low mileage and no def requirements. If CA goes forward with the quietly proposed 12.6% "uniform state sales tax" not sure what will happen.
