No. We're going to buy one eventually, most likely during the summer. Like I said I'm in no hurry.
I don't think $20k is such an unrealistic price.
This one has more than what we're looking for... if you took away all the options you're right around $20k -
asking 23.5 AND it's been on the market for 6 months
Another -
asking 23.5
Another that's over-qualified -
asking 25.9
Most people don't ask for the minimum they'd take. It's a buyers market with a lot of distressed sellers out there.
Do I think I'm going to get what I'm looking for at $20k some time this summer? Not necessarily. Is it a good place to start? Yes. Will we be able to pick something up ~20k? Yep.
FWIW, this is a car for a business. I own a lotus and have been a member here for some time. Depreciation hurts us all but it's real and it's going to be there even if you pretend it's not. This is where the market is currently.\
Thanks.
