I peruse ev-cpo.com on a regular basis and post whatever I find on the relevant boards...That's how I picked up my current car so I am paying it forward so to speak.
From memory, these 2 Xs were fully loaded, ~5k miles, AP 1.0, ~$35k discount. The lease payments on the 1st one was $940-ish, the second $980, both with $6k-ish down, 3 year/10k miles per year.
@Xolt good insight re. the carfax and I agree that this would impact resale. W/o getting a lease vs. buy discussion, these deals are best suited for leases imho for 2 reasons:
1- No worries re. resale value impact
2- But even more importantly, the high discount decreases monthly payments significantly when leasing: since the residual is based on the MSRP while the monthly payments are based on the final, discounted price, the residual is in essence inflated, which reduces the lease payments and the higher the discount as a percentage of the sale price, the better.
For context, when I leased my car, I had to walk Tesla Finance through this twice as they were running the numbers wrong by only accounting for the sale price, not the MSRP price and the associated difference between the 2.
