Just checked out a trade in 2026 model at a dealership. Had 14k miles already in 8 months and had a damaged head unit display (2k for replacement). Told the dealership they were gonna struggle to sell it, especially given that there’s an actual branded dealership selling these all day long a mile away with a quarter of the miles and no damage. It’s been sitting on their lot 2 months already with barely any online hits.
GM had a hissy fit that I suggested 2k less than their price, OTD, for me to drive it off the lot.
I suspect I’ll be getting a call back in a few weeks when their quotas are low and they realize they aren’t selling gold-plated Ferraris.
What sort of car are you a fan of? I sort of felt the same way but then Subaru (by way of being owned by Toyota) came out with an electric station wagon that mostly looks like a normal car. It’s great.
Yeah, the new car market has made overpriced shitters look good

You should offer them something even lower when they do
Hell, the new cars do that too.
Just buy an electric car. It’s a 40% discount after 2 years. Thanks previous owner.
They have never made an electric car I want.

The closest anyone has come is the Golf EV. The Subaru you like is still too much like an SUV. And the interior 🤮
