My guess is no, but it might make someone say "all right, I'd rather get a used car".

And person a getting a used car might make person b who was going to get a used car not get a car at all (or get a lower quality used car making person c...).

Also it might make some families go "all right I won't get a 2nd (or nth) car".

It also changes the math when you have an old car in need of repair and have to decide whether to fix it or replace it.
