Paid $28,800 for our 2021 Mini Cooper S and Vroom just offered me $31,377.

The car does Have extremely low mileage (3800) and is perfect. The MSRP is $32,000.

Excellent! Are you going to sell?

Sounds normal for the times.

I think so. My GF just ordered a Wrangler so I think we will probably move on from the Cooper. Not the greatest car to own in Buffalo, NY.

They work great with proper winter tires. Or are you being high-grounded with it?

OK guys we get it. Used car prices are crazy-when you get good offers on Mini Coopers-you know things are really out of whack!

 

[Lubener]

That's fine. If you buy another vehicle, the sales tax and inflated prices will bite you in the end.

Is that $28,800 all said and done and then you will clear $31,377? People seem to forget sales tax and other expenses (registration) on these types of threads.

Yea it is crazy but be vigilant. The Audi dealer where my 2012 A6 3.0T (with 42k miles ) been serviced since new offered me, in writing, only $8800. Carvana‘s offer was $19,800 cash just based on the VIN number and Carfax data. I sold it to Carvana just before Christmas three weeks ago.

I hope it works out. I am thinking of selling to Vroom also. But then I look around and there is nothing. I am thinking of getting an older car but if one comes up with low miles people are on it like sharks feeding. They are paying way over retail KBB. It’s like they will pay anything to get it. I saw Vroom says they reserve the right to adjust the price based on any hidden defects, or market conditions. The last one especially got me hesitating. So it would be interesting to know how it goes.

It was a swap of a 2018 Wrangler that was looking like it could be a lemon. So no tax implications
