Default Is this overpriced?

I know 2014 is very limited in production but this seems a little high to me. '

No. Not high at all for such low mileage.

Whew. That’s appreciation for you. 2014s where cheaper 1.5 years ago.

That is actually a fair deal for a 14 with that low mileage. Typically a 14 with under 20k miles would be listed around the 50k mark.

The paint looks terrible, are those rock chips?

Yes, and it looks like it ran over something.

Kinda steep imo. Are you looking to get an ISF for weekend driving or daily commuting? If its going to be a trophy car than going for a MY 2014 would be a good bet, BUT this ones paint looks really bad (or maybe its the photo quality?). If youre getting an F for daily commuting, id settle for a 2011-13. There really isnt a whole lot of differences between the 13 and 14 model years. Just my two cents tho

Thanks, it would be a daily driver. No sense in letting a car like this just sit around. I've seen some RC-F's for this price. I still am not sure what I'm going to be doing once my current lease is up.

I agree 100%, letting cars sit is way worse than driving them (their intended design/purpose). Although the RCF is nice and much more updated, i still like the ISF better (might just be bias because i have an ISF lol) especially for daily driving purposes. Its just so practical for what it is!

Just for referenceI picked up a 2014 with 59k on it a few months ago. It was just about $40,000 (39 something). Car was near perfect with the exception of the person who drilled holes in the bumper first for the plate but then again for the plate bracket smh. Had the holes fixed and the bumper painted and it's near perfect now.
