Sounds like someone was sad to see you go. “Bye daddy”. Man you gotta use that PDR! I was on the same tip as Miles until this market. I think I’ll buy one more new one and then it’s back to used. I need me some depreciation discounts lol

I see the camaros keeping their value more then the STI but you never know. Especially the m6 1LE packages. 2SS even better since theres is so few available at a given time. I can always find STI's fairly consistently. Wish the evo stuck around and gave the STI some more direct competition. I personally always preferred the evo to the STI but the competition kept it fresh even though the STI hasnt really changed much in over a decade.

My only TRUE grip with these SS’s we have. Especially the 18 & up models. Is that the front looks sooo aggressive, yet the back defuser is plane & boring AF. Unlike the one you get on the back of the 5.0 mustangs. Also the 1L3E package is an over priced bullshit package. I mean unless your going to track it? It’s a very uncomfortable ride if it’s a daily. Fact be known the 2SS hangs with the ZL1 on turns & curves, it’s not until the straight away that you see the difference in power. How fast is fast enough for you? SS is @ times under 4 second 0-60 car. ZL1 is 3.5 & it’s supercharged. Again if your not going to the track. The 1SS & 2SS 10-Speed auto w/the 1LE package. Is actually the better set up, because an auto will always beat a manual stock for stock hands down. 🥂👍🏽👍🏽

*I NEED OPINIONS* I just purchased a 2017 2ss 50th anniversary edition (w/ mag ride and 10k miles) just because I loved the special edition and I prefer the 2016-2018 front end. But now looking at these prices, I’m not sure if I over payed, I payed 42 and 45 out the door and 47 with a 100k warranty…. I’ve had the car for only a couple weeks and still can “return” it for full cost. Do you think it’s worth it to get the 2021 if the new market is so low compared to the used market? Idk I’m not sure if it’s worth it but I also feel as thought I payed a lot considering the car is older but super low mileage. P.S. it’s the m6, the a8 is garbage.
@RaceCarFriends2 жыл бұрын
I think if you're happy with the car just keep it, but if it were me I would opt for the new car just because I like being the 1st owner.
@8driann9112 жыл бұрын
Did you overpay compared to a few years ago? Definitely. But that’s the ballpark they are priced at now so you paid the average for the market we are in now. I was in the same boat. I was trying to get a 16-18 used one but found out if you can get a brand new one for MSRP, it’s only about 3k more for a brand new car that is 0 miles and 5 years newer. But good luck getting your order picked up. Placed my order about a month and a half ago and dealership told me if it passes 3 months and order hasn’t been picked up, I’ll be eligible for my deposit refund so I’ll be taking my refund and probably looking for a used one. Good luck.

In 2019 I wasn’t able to get my hands on a Golf R in the color I wanted. So, I ended up purchasing a ZL1 1LE in blue and keeping a Honda CRV as my daily. Recently I purchased a Hyundai Elantra N as my daily. Even though the Hyundai is a really good car I still want a Golf R and once again can’t get my hands on one. BTW, I think you would regret your decision to sell the Subaru STI. If it is paid for and not costing you any money, keep it. I think you would be happier with having that also. But if you have to sell it I’ll buy it off of you!

I'm actually in the process of making a whole video about this, but the short answer is that STI is a lot more engaging to drive with a ton more aftermarket support, but if you just want to get something that's fast stock out of the box and you don't plan on modding it or modding it much I highly recommend getting the Camaro SS or the Camaro SS 1LE, for speed the regular Camaro SS will be faster in a straight line than the 1LE.
