“Buying a new car is worse than keeping an old one” is an incredibly situational phrase that has a million exceptions for so many people.

Yeah, but this still holds a lot of water. More often than not people buy a new car to have a new car or even worse they buy one specificcally because they are misguidedly trying to lessen their carbon footprint.

More often than not people buy a new car […] trying to lessen their carbon footprint.

This seems very hard to believe.

Just because I wanted to be sure I am not being mistaken for some reason I just googled a couple different search terms for motivations to buy a new car.

None of the results is even close to confirming your ludicrous quote from above.
So again I am baffled by how confidently wrong you keep on posting here.

But by selling there old car more people can affort to buy a newer cars and fade out old cars wich overall is going to decrease carbon emissions because newer cars are on average more fuel efficent.

But yes Consuming less is still important
