Are you the kind of person who buys a car, and sells it after a year or two? If so, I would not do it as the risk of taking a significant loss is pretty high. this is the case with most cars though. If you will buy it and keep it for a very long time, i think it isnt bad.

if you do buy it, you need to be comfortable with the car losing 20k+ in the next 1-3 years. ideally that amount of money, and this car purchase in general is a reasonably good financial decision and wont impact your financial situation much. if that is the case, i say go for it.

That said, I think you might be able to get a better deal, even if the car has a couple thousand more miles on it.

In April (i know this is a while ago now) i bought my '18 with 6k miles for 60k. warranty for me is not a selling point as I plan on voiding anyway.

Yes, it can take a while though to find a low mile, good condition car, for a good price. if you just are starting to consider used, i would take your time, look all over, and be absolutely certain this is what you want to do.

If you are not sure, you could always just buy a cheaper toy fun car until you figure it out.
