I bet you could get 2/3 grand off that price its a 2013. Try buying from Clint new though; Worst case get a quote from him and use it as part of the negotiation.. but I would give him the business and get the color car I wanted.

Even if you get $2-3k off that asking price, the higher interest rate will net you a savings of what $1-2k. Not worth it IMO when you can buy a year newer car, be the only owner, etc.

I think you would have to get the price around $22k for this to make any sense, considering the asking is basically the same as what some are getting new ones for (this is without knowing what kind if interest rates you are comparing).

But it also depends on how much he intends to put down, which will also affect total cost in the long run considering interest.

You have to assume he would put down the same on both, but yes that would make a difference in the total amount of interest paid. Although he hasn't said what the interest rate comparison is.

Thanks! I have read a lot about Clint's services but with the VIP program it seemed close enough to not pay for shipping twice. But maybe I will get a quote!

I intend to put around $3k down and was told the current financing for the used BRZ was 1.99% (up to 48 months) and 2.49% (up to 72 months). I was also told that the rates for new cars would be within 1% better than those. I can always apply at my credit union to try to get better rates. I do see your point @Burrcold about the total interest being the deciding factor and have done some estimation calculations for that. This thread was more intended for comparing the differences in new cars and CPO cars and how buying used would decrease the resale/trade-in value. Thank you for all the responses!

Those rates aren't bad.
