I firmly believe that purchasing is a bad idea for the simple fact that selling a car is a nightmare.
A)
people really have no large sums of cash sitting around to buy cars except for cars under $5k
B)
you wanna sell to carmax, they will likely lowball you unless you happen to have a very desirable car the moment they want it
C)
Selling on CL is a lot of wasted time and you deal with shady characters who will end up also low balling you.
You’re also getting 15k mi/yr lease which means you drive a lot which will devalue the car even further.
