Any issues with this used purchase?

Looks clean. I get very worried when a vehicle was used as a demo because there are some people out there that can't drive manual and learn on it. That's just me lol.

Not just that. They'll beat up on the car. And the break in won't be done correctly (if you believe in that).

That was also a concern….. I appreciate everyone’s feedback and opinions. I called off the deal as I do think it was priced high, on top of the concern that it’s an early production demo and who knows whether it was a press car or dealer demo. Either way, high chance it wasn’t taken care of properly…

I’m actually working on a more local brand new unit, with a substantial amount off MSRP as well as a better trade in value! Seeming to be a way better deal, only a couple thousand more….

Yeah I don't know about this. I got a demo vehicle last July for $52k before taxes.

It came with blacked out illuminated badges, mud flaps, two sets of floor mats and trunk cover, both OEM rims sets with 8 total Michelin PS4S, carbon fiber mirror caps and spoiler, illuminated doorsills, Alcantara wheel, titanium shifter knob...

All said and done $8-$9k in accessories and the car had 300 miles on it. I'd say what they're asking seems okay but not great.

That is very true.

51k a good deal on a brand new 2025?

Including destination? I think so. I honestly never worry about a couple grand here or there. (probably why I'm not rich, LOL) Happiness is important too. You only live once!

Yes, including destination and a cargo tray, all weather floor mats, wheel locks, mud flaps, and some glass/wheel coverage for a year.

Well said Tim. That's always been my moto, you only live once! Make the best of it.

Ended up making the deal on a brand new LCM w/ red interior for $50,700 plus TTL

I was going for another white (yes I had a type s before), but the liquid carbon looks much nicer in person than in photos in my opinion. Plus, trying something new.

Also had all season floor matts, trunk tray, and mudflap. Whatever other “paint protection” they put on as well lol

Thanks everyone, this was literally a couple grand more than the used deal as this dealer was also $1,000 more on my trade on top of it…

Well we gotta know now! Why go from type S to something and back? What did you have in between?

lol!

Ct4V Blackwing….Manual

Amazing car, HUGE performance. Just realized it’s not practical for me. Didn’t own it long and was able to get out of it for what I’d consider to be a very minimal loss. Back to my Honda roots lol

Agreed! Normally I think grey cars can look a little dull but the LCM looks really fancy and with all the black contrast front and rear

I forgot how hard these seats are lol
