McLEAN, Va. -

Remember February 1995?

Bill Clinton was in his first term as president. TLC was topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart for most of the month, according to Billboard.com. UCLA was a couple months away of running the table in the NCAA Tournament.

And it was the last time used-car prices dropped from their January level.

Until last month, according to NADA Used Car Guide.

The division of J.D. Power said February wholesale prices of vehicles up to 8 years old increased sequentially every year from 1996 through 2015.

But last month, their prices fell close to 1 percent.

NADA Used Guide said in its latest Guidelines report that part of the decline was due to stronger than usual later-model volume gains. In fact, there was approximately a 20-percent sequential spike in auction volume for 2014 and  2015 model-year vehicles.

Jonathan Banks, executive analyst for NADA Used Car Guide, said in the analysis: “While it's normal for volume to grow over the period, the rise was four times larger than what occurred on a like-model age basis the past two years.”

With that price softness in February came a downward movement in NADA Used Car Guide’s seasonally adjusted used price index. It was 118.6 in February, down 3 percent month-over-month.

Not since November 2009 has any month-over-month decline been that large.

Year-over-year, the index fell 4 percent from last February’s reading. 

And for that 1990s flashback, Auto Remarketing won't go into the diverging opinions on another Clinton in the White House. But let's be fair: TLC and UCLA are still remembered by many as the most dynastic of acronyms.
