No, it's better than that. Inflation adjusted, this $23k corolla costs less than a base model 1995 Corolla. That one had an MSRP around $12k

There has been real price decrease in small cars!

No there hasn't.

Wait until you see how cars are made now.

Comparing it to other products made by machines that actually have reduced in price since 1995 like kettles, LED lights, pc components, peripherals.

Cars should be far cheaper but they're not, and that's on purpose.
