We need a proper Show 'n Shine thread.  I will withhold any form of back-slapping until then.   ;D

Nice!!!


I take it you're now Miata shopping as per the forum regulations:

1. All members must own, or have owned, a Subaru and a Miata.  (though an S2K could be substituted for a Miata in some cases...)

Indeed. I went looking and thought Subie's do not depreciate much on the used market...

That's why we bought out our Forester.  There's only one 2011 XT on Autotrader in Ontario and it's going for $25,998 with twice the mileage as ours.  We figure that in a year from now, we can get back at least what we paid to buy it out, if not more.

Not if your buying used....1 out of 3 then..  Affordable it is not.  Unless your a dealer, and get it as a trade in.... :D

Oh, yeah, holy crap do Corollas hold their value.  It's why we bought new.  2-3yr old units are just too expensive compared to new.  I figured dealers would negotiate down, and no, they would not.  And sure enough, the cars were selling.

Subarus used to be awesome used buys.  Ten years ago when we bought our Forester, they depreciated HARD.  Today, word is out, and now they're terrible used buys.

No problem!  I'd rather buy a Miata.   ;D
