Understandable that you want a 2016. Might be worth opening up to different colors and wrap it.

I inquired about a similar basically brand new Rhodium car about 3 months ago. Dealer wanted $5k over sticker, so I passed.

Isn't that the truth.

Low miles is a strange criterion, with all due respect. These cars are not real collectibles, so low miles will not matter for resale that much. And these cars do not fall apart from driving - even 20K+ mile heavily tracked cars look and work like new after a nice detail. Why pay more or limit choices because of extra few thousand miles that do not really matter to car's future value, looks or performance?

In the past I've owned vehicles that were built to go fast. I can't think of a single instance where I would have been better off buying high mileage vehicles vs low mileage vehicles. Plus I'm buying to hold, not flip. Low mileage, to me, it offers peace of mind. I think most people would prefer a car with 300 miles over one with 20,000. Maybe I'm wrong.
