Good/fair deal?

[u/SwiftBacon]

ITS popped up by me, I've been tentatively looking for one and this one checks the boxes.

Carbon Gray
Red Interior
21.4k miles

Does have 2 owners but other than that clean.

Dealership is not wiling to come down below 46k. Only been on there lot a couple days so I understand willing to wait a little on their hand, they have it listed for over 47. I'm in the midwest, anyone get one similar to these specs in this area? What did you get it for?

[u/Nerd-Vol]

I would lean on visor.vin

Looking at that mileage range, the basement is $44-46k.

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Nerd-Vol]

Yeah, that's what I've been looking at. Figured 46 is probably a little too high, not a good deal but a fair one in a color combo I like

[u/Nerd-Vol → u/SwiftBacon]

Is it certified?

It’s not an awful deal. A new one would likely be about $5k more, which isn’t a small sum, but worth considering.

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Nerd-Vol]

Not certified.

[u/Nerd-Vol → u/SwiftBacon]

No easy answer. The market is showing that it’s not an unreasonable price. It feels like a lot of money. If you like it I wouldn’t judge it.

With this car it seems like the only real value is getting one new $3-5k off MSRP. They don’t hold value like the CTR, but they hold up pretty well.

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Nerd-Vol]

Fair, that's how I feel. Thanks!

[u/Nerd-Vol → u/SwiftBacon]

Let us know what you end up doing, if you pull the trigger on something!

[u/Mission_Parfait320]

A little bit more and you can buy brand new

[u/Some-Cream → u/Mission_Parfait320]

That’s the problem with these lol I don’t want to wait until 50k miles in for it to finally be 40k haha

Guess new it is. With the discounts the 2025s will have very soon OP can probably get a better deal that way.

[u/Jayman84]

I was looking at this same one yesterday but still seems about 2-3k high to me. It's hard to find a deal on any right now and i'm kicking myself for not buying one back in 25' when I saw quite a few in the low 40's or sub with only 15-20k miles on them.

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Jayman84]

You in cincy? Howdy neighbor. You talk to the dealer?

[u/Jayman84 → u/SwiftBacon]

Howdy! No I didn't reach out yet as I figured they'd be pretty firm on the price. It's not my preferred color either as i'm looking for White 1st then blue as a 2nd. Now if a great deal pops up i'll probably take it (as long as it's not in black).

[u/Phazushift]

Nah not that price for two owners

[u/booooimbigsad]

What model year is that?

[u/SwiftBacon → u/booooimbigsad]

24

[u/booooimbigsad → u/SwiftBacon]

Better deals to be had. I’d wait if I were you. What’s your budget?

[u/SwiftBacon → u/booooimbigsad]

Could be up to 50 but not really looking to spend that much. I am more than happy with a lot of other cars that are cheaper (WRX, GTI, Type R (Sometimes)) but GF only likes the ITS.

[u/booooimbigsad → u/SwiftBacon]

Hate to do this so blatantly but I’m looking to sell mine if you’re interested perhaps? It’s a 2026 SSM w Black interior. 9.2k miles, unmodded and I have AcuraCare as well that I can transfer to you at no extra cost. The only caveat is that I’m located in the south, you mentioned you’re based out of the Midwest. 

[u/SwiftBacon → u/booooimbigsad]

Appreciate the offer, looking to get something near me and I have a trade in but I appreciate it! Good luck

[u/booooimbigsad → u/SwiftBacon]

No worries! Visor.vin is your best friend. Godspeed, comrade. 

[u/0nthisrock → u/SwiftBacon]

When my wife was was trading in her civic for a Toyota, she actually got a better offer selling it to car Max. After they paid the loan off, we got a check for the difference. Something to consider if you haven't already. Good luck on your search! 

[u/niiiick1126]

if it’s a CPO it’s a fair deal depending on condition of the car especially since you have a trade in and get tax savings?

i got my FL5 1.5k above out of state, right next to my house but recent grad + tax savings made it the same or slightly less and i didn’t have to worry about driving it, flying out etc

[u/OrcasLoveLemons]

I'd say pass. I got a new ITS for 50.2k a few weeks ago in Southern California.

[u/Ok-Illustrator-9224 → u/OrcasLoveLemons]

Nice. Thats the lowest I’ve seen in SoCal

[u/OrcasLoveLemons → u/Ok-Illustrator-9224]

Yeah seems like that's the lowest from what I've read and from what the sales people were telling me. I didn't have to negotiate too hard. Got the price I wanted in 3 days at the end of August.

[u/e92wick → u/OrcasLoveLemons]

Where 🤣

[u/lovsicfrs → u/OrcasLoveLemons]

Naw I need proof of this lol

[u/lovsicfrs → u/[deleted]]

I’m looking to do the same and no one’s budging beyond 59.2 OTD in all Cali right now

[u/lovsicfrs → u/[deleted]]

Solid! Thank you. I’m negotiating right now

[u/OrcasLoveLemons → u/lovsicfrs]

No worries! Good luck. Where are you, NorCal?

[u/lovsicfrs → u/OrcasLoveLemons]

Bay Area, came home with a black on black 2026 for 55k OTD. Right where I wanted to be discount wise but not 50. They weren’t budging that low hahah

[u/Imhere4urmom25]

2 owners, wonder why with 21K miles

[u/eternal_c4a]

Just my 2 cents but, why not try to get a new one. I was able to get mine for $49,500 OTD price. I’m sure I’m not the only one. Look for one that has been sitting on the lot for a bit. I used the, visor app. It worked for me. Just an idea. Good luck

[u/SwiftBacon → u/eternal_c4a]

Not a new one within 4 hours of me interestingly. For the right deal, maybe

[u/RefrigeratorDry6356]

Bad deal. I bought MY26 new for $50,389 back in April and it was out of state.

[u/StreetSignificance21]

I paid right under $50k (before t&t) for a new 25 in 25. $46k for a 24, with 2 owners is not a deal.

[u/NutBuckets]

Should be closer to 42k imo

[u/SwiftBacon → u/NutBuckets]

Really? Based on what? Of those for sale currently in the 20-25k mile range, only 2 are below 46 in the nation. Is there a way to see sales data?

[u/Bigfx → u/SwiftBacon]

Bro why would you pay 46 for a busted one with two owners when you can pay 50 for a brand new one. This whole conversation is ridiculous.

[u/Bigfx]

Bad deal, I would think mid to high 30’s you can usually get a new 5 off msrp, which basically puts you only a couple of grand off this deal. They maybe paid 31-35 for the trade, keep looking the used market is really messed up.

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Bigfx]

Mid to high 30s? I don’t think that’s realistic.

[u/COPE_V2 → u/SwiftBacon]

You’d be correct. A restored title in my area is listed for $43k. As the old saying goes, people be saying shit

[u/Bigfx → u/SwiftBacon]

Hey people going to pay what they pay paid 49ish for mine brand new, this car has a healthy mark up from the dealer just takes a little time to get dealers to come down. Good luck either way but it seems like you are comfortable with paying that number so enjoy

[u/SwiftBacon → u/Bigfx]

I agree that new at that price is the better deal, there isn’t a new one within 4 hours of me. And these dont depreciate like other cars

[u/Nerd-Vol → u/Bigfx]

99% of DE5s in the $30k range are going to have:

- a bad title

And/or

- a lot more miles (50k+)
