That or, the car simply isnt worth what owners think its worth. Ive seen lots of people from all over try to get 34 or 35...it dont happen they give up trade at the 31 to 33 area. Its all its worth used.The reason their so cheap in your area is because of all the traffic!
Just joking!
Nope. Its basic supply side economics. Here on the west coast, Type R's are scarce and the prices are HIGH. On the East coast, people are un-willing to keep the car for the winter season and the "new shiny" toy has lost its luster. A ton have shown up on the used market on the East Coast, and prices started high because of initial values were high. The price increase also pushed prices higher.
I know that is why in my first response I put in my area
california is its own economic anomaly hell if I had time and the money I would come here buy cars and bring them there and sell them. If you owned a flat bed how much money in gas would it take to drive to NC and buy one new for Msrp and then drive it back there and sell it for 42k? I could do that all week long LOL. The things are sitting everywhere in the southeast.
How long ago was that? Which Carvana (city) was it sold to? Thanks for any info that you can provide.
well here is the first 3 of about 30 on carvana for 33k not sure where they are buying them for 35k and then selling them for 33k. But more power to any if they can get 35k. But 31 to 34 is the norm for trade 34k for 19s.... 31k for 17s and 31k to 32k for 18s. I can show you hundreds of used Rs selling for under 34k why would anyone pay over that for it? I know there are isolated areas that pay higher but 95% of the country its gonna be in these areas of trade.

This is true for my area too. Carvana has a bunch of Type R's for sale. I'm interested to see how the used prices look this time around next year when the 20' year model drops. I wonder if dealers will still have leftover 19's when the 20's come out.well here is the first 3 of about 30 on carvana for 33k not sure where they are buying them for 35k and then selling them for 33k.

IM not dogging on anyone but I just went through it. I literally went to 17 dealers all over 3 states and 31k was the highest I was offered and that was pulling teeth. If I asked for more they simple said not interested. Same thing for my 3 friends who all sold their as well and theirs were 18s and one 19. The 19 got 32k no dealer would go above that. IM sure in Southern California you can get a bit more but like I said that is a different ecosystem there.
