Seems like you could have bought a 2 year old used Golf, which would have only depreciated 1-2K over that same amount of time, if you negotiated right.

Cuz I like telling people what to do

Shoulda kept the Golf anyway.....Mazda 3 seats have no lumbar support last I remember

That is only 14 months since the first month comes out of the down payment.


Two hundred bucks a month for a car you have to do nothing to until you get rid of it is pretty cheap. You do this over 5 years and you're paying 12k, but getting a new car every 1.5 years. You actually make out better unless you keep the vehicle for at least a few years after it's paid off, but who wants a car for 7 years.

Since these hold there value well, how much do you think I could have bought a 1-2 year old used one for? Then sold it for after 1.5 years? More than 2k?
