WTB 1LE soon
I've decided to get rid of my 16 1SS and get a 1le in next few months. Currently 4 months ahead on payments (Paid off $9,300 in 9 months) and was going to just get the 1le wheels from my local chevy dealer and maybe the recaro's later but I've decided to take hit and get the car I actually want instead of spending the money to mod the one I already have. I've seen around 50-60 for sale online and prices range from $39,999 to $46k. Does anyone think the price might go down over next 4 months or so being sales are slow and these are already sitting on the lot? I would actually prefer to buy a slighty used one but really don't see someone getting rid of theirs already. Just thinking out loud and wondered if you guys had more insite than me. Thanks

Are you planning to trade? If the prices on new ones go down, the value of your trade will drop too.

Not planning to trade. I'll be pushing harder to sell mine in the next few months. Depreciation is obvious on my car value. I'm just wondering if factory rebates, tag events or dealers just needing to move cars will affect 1le on the lots.

My guess is mid 30's in 6 months.......I am like you, waiting for the right time $$$, but like the previous poster stated, my trade in slides too.

Good things come to those who wait. I am also looking to buy a 1LE but it doesn't seem like they are sitting on the lots for long right now. I am going to quote my post from the Price/Order forum.

One question, what are you using to find the 50-60 cars for sales and their respective prices? |

Seen a few on here bought for $39k. I'm thinking they could get close to what I'm willing to spend soon. I'll get one either way just not really wanting to pay more than $80 a month than my 16 cost me.

Is there a way to filter for the 1LE on autotrader and cars.com? Even when I filter for 1SS, manual etc, I still have to look through 100s of results. Chevy's inventory page is also limited in the same way. |

I think the best time to buy financially will be when used 1LEs hit $20k. They probably won't lose much value after that.

Possibly. I prefer new/like new and stay within a model year. I'm pretty happy with my 16 now, I just really want the 1le and not to see one sell for a few thousand less a few months after I buy it.
