Considering buying a used 40k mile used 2016...bad idea?
Been shopping for a used 16-17 2SS for a bit now and came across one that I like but it has higher mileage than what I had originally set out to find.
Here's what I'm looking at: 16 2SS (no other options, no sunroof, no npp, no mrc) auto 40k miles $28K from dealership I haven't seen the vehicle in person yet, but on paper does this seem like a good deal? Concerns with 40k miles...? How much depreciation has already been taken care of at this price/mileage? I ask because I will likely only keep the car a max of 2 years before trading up to something else. General thoughts? By comparison most 16 2SS 15-20k mile cars I've seen are going for around $33k or so from dealerships; so that's a good $6k less for an additional 20k miles.... |

Like to stay in the low $30k's 2SS coupe auto npp white, silver, blue, grey I came across a 16 2SS with 24k miles on it for $30k that fit the bill, but the owner is an 18 yr old kid, so that's kind of a turn-off. I know how I would have driven a 6th gen back when I was 18 jest |

Higher miles and no options sounds like an ex rental. Run a carfax to make sure.

You can find brand new 1SS models in the low low 30s.

Just bought a 1SS 2016 with 11,500 miles. It has NPP exhaust and I paid 28,500. There are better deals out there.

One thing that everyone fails to account for is that a cars value is specific to a region. Now I cant say if that is a good deal or not but I definitely wouldn't put it off the table. It certainly doesn't sound like a bad deal. Only you can determine what an acceptable value is to you, if the seller agrees than that is the value of that car.

Keeping the car for only 2 years? Why not just lease now and save the rest of your money for the new vehicle down payment? Just saying.

IMO way too many miles, maybe something with half the mileage or less is worth consideration.....
