Treat your car anyway you like but for me this is a fairly cheap sports car that I can beat on a bit and not feel like I’m taking a beating in it’s value.

I hear u but its like a brand new car for me. Considering the condition my 09 gti is in. All the Damn interior upholster fell off. Still runs great though.

Will this car hold more value because its a 2013? Since that's when they were first made.

Doubtful. I just got a 14 47k Highway miles excellent condition unmolested for 16,800. I see 13’s in the $13-14k range often. Doesn’t look like they hold value very well. If you mod it heavily the value will plummet. Keep it clean, low miles and mostly stock for best resale. IMHO

For some reason here in FL you dont see that many. Even the Dealerships only have like 1 or 2. Anything Ive seen for sale around here have over 60k miles and have accidents running about $16-18k. I've been shopping around like 3 months for a BRZ.

Congrats on finding such a gem!

I see that you joined the forum only a few months after I did. Were you just 86-curious back then?

J Greg BRZ · 12-16-2017, 06:27 PM

Unfortunately, the 86 platform actually seems to depreciate pretty fast. They drop from $25-28k new to $15k used in just a few years. No one buys an 86 for an investment. It's a depreciating asset.

You will see pictures of what is behind you on your HU when you back up.
