if someone offered me $1700 to put over 10k additional miles on my car, I would slap the shit out of them

Why not go for NEW for a few thousand dollars more. I paid just over 25K for mine 12 months ago. I'll bet you could get a MY2013 leftover for less than 25K.

The dealer appears to be using an aftermarket insurance company, Autocheck and then writing an ad that is vague at best, intentionally misleading at worst.
I'd understand their claim of "Scion Certified Pre-Owned" if they were also a Toyota dealership, but they aren't. |

I agree with @Frstorm. Spend the extra few grand and buy your car new. You never know how the car was treated. If I did not get the deal through TMMK and the new college grad discount. I would have bought the BRZ limited for the extra goodies. So, I do understand why you would go used. Yet in hindsight, I would have got the BRZ limited if I was to do it over again. Now I would be throwing thousands away if I were to sell my FRS to get a BRZ limited. Just some food for thought. Good luck.

For just a little more you can get a brand new one, IMHO it's a no brainer.
Personally, even if a car only has 1,000 miles on it, it would have to be at least $4k-5k below what a new one is currently going for me to even consider it... |
