Default What a Price Drop!

Is it just me or did the LS 500 drop a lot more than anyone expected. I'm seeing them for around the $66K mark for a 18 with around 16k miles, these things drop in price more than I expected. I thought they would hold around the $70K mark.

I think the market is factoring in the massive discounts the LS got during the new sales. Considering the typical 20% off new LS msrp, $66k for a used 18k mile doesn’t seem bad at all. Are these Autotrader data points you are looking at?

I've noticed that. Big discounts on msrp. Plus slow new sales. It would probably be impossible or extremely expensive to trade mine in early unless I was getting another Lexus.
