These days, most cars can be found at or below MSRP. Inventory levels have mostly recovered, and dealers are generally willing to work with you. That said, not every new car that you could possibly want is going to be a great deal. In fact, several new cars are still selling for more than MSRP. It certainly isn’t illegal to pay a premium to get a car you really want, but you should at least know what you’re dealing with going in.Recently, our friends at Consumer Reports looked through actual transaction data from TrueCar to find the cars that are currently the worst deals. Coincidentally, the vehicles that topped the list are all selling for an average of 8 percent over MSRP. It’s also important to pay attention to trim levels, as the Outer Banks version of the Bronco Sport made the list of the best SUV deals, while the Big Bend makes an appearance here.Let’s take a look at what made Consumer Reports’ list of the worst deals in the new car market today.
