The system is at least very easy to use, but it’s very antiquated now. It’s getting glitchy too, I’m almost ready to see if the dealer has any firmware updates for it.

A few days ago, I asked about the value of my 2017 Fusion.
After visiting several sites to get a value, I think I found some interesting stuff.
Your numbers were 13.5 trade in, 14.5, CARV buying website.
Went to Kelly and after checking all appropriate boxes, their number was 14.6.
Some others were much higher, so I'm ignoring those as not realistic.
When I did the Kelly quote I checked every appropriate box.
Got a quote from CARV, only checking Lux and Tech pkg, not all the individual features.
They came back with 14,125.
Noticed their interface looks exactly the same as Kelly.
Went back to Kelly only checking the same boxes(Lux, Tech).
None of the individual features included in the packages got checked off.
Their number changed to 14,275.
Makes sense that it was higher because they didn't ask if I owed any money on the car, which I do.
Going to wait a few days and reenter my CARV quote, also just sent in my payment.
I'm having fun with this, since I actually have some equity.

Any info on this car?

It is very loaded with about every option. Also, it was in the Pacific NW and ended up at a dealer in Connecticut. Is that a normal distance for an auction vehicle to travel?

Auction value would be right around $40k ... roughly. They aren't terribly consistent.

Note that the carfax shows 75 more miles than the listing. Someone has been joyriding.

and in a 4,000# "trucklet" the extra weight up top (whatever it really is) is not likely to make any material difference. And if you want to go racing on the track, I am pretty sure a Santa Fe or Outback is not the right choice!
of course it is personal opinion. If you don't like it, don't get it. I love it and use it all the time. I would gladly trade off the 20-21" ultra low profile tires a lot of companies seem to force on you now. those are completely useless, and are actually a negative (more prone to damage, add unsprung weight, stiffer ride, noisier). I am sure normal sized tires I would notice. not having a roof, I never would in terms of driving dynamics.

Hahahha; high inflation. Wait, did you intend that pun?
If you're up in the PNW, that car is going to bring silly money. Super rare and very in demand. Curious to see what the sages say.
2014 Lexus IS 250 with 70k miles - $15000
2015 Infiniti Q50 with 90k miles - $13000
Which one is a better deal?

Lexus has nicer look but Infiniti has better engine, so I like both the same. Infiniti has higher mileage but Lexus is $2k more expensive.
That's why it all comes up to depreciation and which one is best bang for the buck.
