Hi, I'm getting the feeling you don't fully understand the meaning of Time-Series analysis. here is a nice start : http://www.abs.gov.au/websitedbs/d3310114.nsf/4a256353001af3ed4b2562bb00121564/b81ecff00cd36415ca256ce10017de2f!OpenDocument and a nice article about arima models: http://www.duke.edu/~rnau/411arim.htm now to answer your question: I do mean the dependent variable (which is aso the independent variable in AR models). and you can use it for both autoreg and arima. take care

Hi, I believe what you are looking for is The arimax method (which is the same as arima but with independent variables). I would recommend inquiring each series separately so you can look at the structure of each series (unless you are looking for the average price of all car models.). BTW: why not using the difference between each time period ? (T2/T1-1) I SUGGEST YOU GOOGLE ABOUT ARIMAX. about AUTOREG - it is a simplier form of arima (AUTOREGRESSION-INTEGRATED-MOVING_AVERAGE) hope this helps. keep posting
