You literally save 10-15k buying like new used, it's well worth the small risk, and the GM certified used warranty is every bit as good - if not better - than new. Granted you have to buy from a dealer to get it but I had the opportunity to talk to the previous owner in my case (he bought a Hellcat, car was too cramped for him) |

Right and I've purchased my share of new cars but it's an immediate $10+k hit in this case. I can use that money for ceramic coating and a few mods. New car smell is overrated but I do like to know the maintenance that was performed, and of course all these cars need a catch can and coolant reservoir installed immediately

Yes ZL1 - coolant circuit for the intercooler can get air bubbles in it

There's really no way to know. It could have 4,000 mi. at 1,500 rpm avg. or 5500-6500 rpm. If he's local, you could have a shop leak test it, borescope each cylinder, etc.

My window sticker was $70,200, no one around the time was dealing on price, I paid $62K. That’s $8k off a new one in this market. I also only lost $500 on my trade from what I paid 2yrs ago. |

Low to mid 50s for '19+ was the norm all the way through mid summer, and high 40s for 17s and 18s (not that I would buy a 17 or 18)
I saw plenty of 1LEs for mid to high 50s too Is the new car smell worth that? |

When you bring a trade into the equation it does muddy the numbers a little but it sounds like you did really good. I have not talked to a lot of dealers but the ones I have in the last month were all at sticker. I even saw over MSRP at one on line dealer and hoped that was a typo and not a look at where this might be going. Last year I called on several 19's on that Black Friday sale but was to late. Fantastic deals.

If GM didn’t donkey dick the ‘20+ TCM’s I would have seriously considered either of those, if they were red. |
