At 1.9 interst. I financed at 5 years MSRP was 125. Put 15% down and i have 25% Gap through my insurance AND I am for sure upside down. U will need come with the diff if you sell. So the new purcahse price is not discounted anymore.
Lol I can pay the car full today, it just sucks that this brand loves to screw its customers. I had AMGs and other German high end expensive cars that will depreciate 60% in 4 year but not in 1 year like this
You got the car you wanted at a price you agreed to. Most cars you buy depreciate ~20% the second you drive it off the lot simply because you bought retail and the dealer can buy one at wholesale, so you trade-in is based on wholesale minus the fact the car is not new anymore, has fixed options, etc. Yes the MSRP drop hurt your resale some, but you expected to drive this car for 5 years, so drive it. The difference at the end of those 5 years will not be that great.
Since you like German brand examples, here is one for you:
Bid for the chance to own a 2023 Porsche Taycan Turbo S Cross Turismo at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars online. Lot #116,519.
bringatrailer.com
Top trim of the Porsche Taycan (just like your Plaid is trim for Model S), the car was less ~ 6 months old, original MSRP $227K, bidding got up to $171K (reserve not met), dealer trade-in ~$150K (got numbers from discussions on Taycan forum and FB where the guy had it posted for $185K). And you know what, Porsche actually raised MSRP for 2024 Taycans. Top trim case drop like a stone in price once you get them (guess what, I got a Taycan Turbo, I am not kidding myself about its trade-in value, but I honestly don't care, as I didn't buy it to sell it, I love driving it too much - yes, I chose it over Plaid even though it costed a lot more money, even with the Plaid old prices, and is slower 0-60).
So bottom line, enjoy your car. You obviously love the car or you would not have shelled out $125K for it. Don't let the fact that someone else can now buy the same car for less ruin the experience for you. I bought 4 Model S'es over a decade, and have experienced price drops after I bought mine on couple of them, but it really didn't ruin it for me - one was a price drop after just 2 months, so be it. If Porsche suddenly started selling new Taycan Turbos for $10K, I would not complain, I would love it and buy more of them (for wife, kids, parents, inlaws), probably a spare one for me. It would be so much easier for me if all the family members drove the same car - I am their car support guy. Also, the more of them out there, the easier it is to get replacement parts.
PS> Look on the bright side, you got 1.9% interest. Rates are much higher today. Compare $0 down lease on a Plaid today vs. your payment, it might make you feel better. Current high inflation helps you there too (though probably not in your daily living).
