The other thing is I looked around at what they are fetching ........... on average for 145K km, they are priced at $16,800 CAN up here.  These things are worthless.............. I mean a few repairs at the Stealership and the total bill is more then that. Ouch.
Has anyone else recently gone through this expereince ?!?!??! |
that is exactly why they are priced where they are - expensive to repair has a big impact on resale values as vehicles get older. But if you are willing to live with that, or can do much of the work yourself, you can get outstanding vehicles for pennies on the dollar. I just picked up a 4.6is for under 25% of the original MSRP and it looks and drives like a new one.
