rare color and looks like the interior and exterior is clean. I dont think $20k is out of the ballpark. I bought mine last year as my beater car and its nowhere near as nice, but it was under 15k and the engine and trans was solid. I wouldnt mind paying 20k if the color and condition was right
That's at least $2k in repairs right there. Worse yet is what it tells about the owner.
Then there's the oil leaks, bad tire pressure sensor(s), etc. And the dealer made the mistake of posting early pictures as soon as the car came in before they had it all gussied up in that photo studio. The check engine light was on in those photos. It's not now (but may come back after a drive cycle - would have to scan it to verify), but it shows the previous owner's urgency to fix things. The interior was also pretty dirty.
I can make concessions like anyone but there's a price point.
The overall vibe here is an owner that likes to use his toys and not really care for them.
But that test drive...

Good News is.... they're all coming down in price. I definitely like this Blue one. But Sorry to see it's Rough. I paid $17 for my branded one because it has flawless paint work. The repair shop was beyond pro and offered all the receipts and current alignment specs. Did take 18 months to find one.
