- 2016 Toyota Highlander
Vehicle - 2021 CX-5 Carbon Edition Turbo AWD, Red Interior
Mileage - 3K miles
I bought my wife a CX-5 in 2021 as remote work was ending for her. She is on a hybrid set-up currently. The car currently has 3K miles on it and of those 3K miles, 2K of it was me driving the car due to my Highlander going offline. So basically she put about 1K miles on it in a year. Mostly, it sits in the driveway.
Does it make sense to unload the vehicle? Perhaps get something mostly depreciated already so its not a sunk cost?
Looking around online and in my area, it seems that a CE Turbo AWD goes for around $37K with many more miles. This is probably as close to new as one may find. Even the door trim adhesives are still on it. Maybe it can pull in $39K, which is what I paid for it including TTL. I figure it is one of the more coveted CX-5s due to it being the only year a Carbon has a turbo, also having the bose audio and a red interior.
All of this is contingent on my wife saying okay, but she doesn't care for the red interior anyway and the placement of the cupholders. I am in the SF Bay area.
What would you do?
