Simply $hocked That's how many inflation-riddled Americans felt when they got their first look at 1975 model prices Up an average of $400 to $500 and coming atop increases posted during the '74 model year that averaged more than $500 per car. the new window stickers do nothing for the auto-makers' confidence heading into the new model year. To be sure, there's more of practically everything in the '75s -- better fuel economy, lower maintenance costs, and lots of creature comforts. But selling these pluses over the dominant minus for '75 -- price -- will mightily tax the talents of Detroit's super salesmen They may get some help, however, if used car prices keep pace with the new models. Ward's Auto World's three-part feature, "The Price Game," starts on page 31. Cover Illustration by Dick Mayer.
