Yeah this is a real consideration if you’re looking for profit. I would not order one of these thinking you’re going to make a big ROI. This is the classic have a blast with a car and unload it without getting hurt a few months later move. That’s why I still have a WRX in the driveway, but that’s a third of the payment.
I never tripped any alarms with CCAP leasing until the TRX and 392 apps went in with big payments
For personal enjoyment I’d get a SOT even if you don’t recoup it when you sell (which unfortunately you can’t get with Anvil). They increased the cost for SOT on these a lot vs. last year whereas they decreased the cost for it on 4xes.
Those 5 options make up $5960 on a 2023 build, more than makes up for the 2024 $5100 msrp increase. Doesn’t even account for new 12.3 inch infotainment, nappa leather, power seats, floating rear axles, antenna delete.
I know these orders with Mitch are a “order now think later” situation with the refundable deposit but… I’m not sure I see the upside here.
With acq/doc/ship out here to the west we’re at 84k on a base with color option. Running the LH calc with 23 programs, the best CCAP payment I got is a risky 1400+.
Seems like a lot of risk for a few days of enjoyment and a few grand of profit. Maybe I should stick to Priuses
Totally right… you’re looking at 3-5k of profit at your upside, not losing much or waiting until it sells to get the deposit back as the likely downside and a $1500ish payment. Not that different than the TRX moving forward.
But hard to find someone who didn’t think this was an absolute blast to drive and misses having it.
I just finished signing all my paperwork and paying the deposit. Does Mitch send you the VON or do I need to ask for it in a few days? I’m trying not to bombard him with emails. This is my first time using him.
