Well said.

While standard on the LE, things like the midnight grille, front chin, and spoiler are optional on any G. The most immediate tell for the Limited are the wheels, and obviously red leather... both of which I think you're better off without, because fugly, but the heart wants what the heart wants.

Seriously, OP, this is something you know before you buy a car, not after.

Here's a LE in Malbec Black, which is a unique color originally introduced with the IPL. It looks stunning in the right light. Unfortunately, it also looks hideous in the wrong light.

Then obviously mine is not LE. Reason I asked because mine almost come with everything, premium/sport/navi/wood trim/rear spoiler.. etc.. I'm still not sure it come with technology pkg..

I got it for $28k, the owner is original with all dealer maintenance records from the day one, and it has 20k miles on it.

So, do you guy think the price I paid ($28k) reasonable? I should've done more research before buying.

Thanks,

Do your own research with NADA, Edmunds, KBB, etc. $28 out the door is normal to high.

BTW, that's also something you do before you buy a car.

I did check the KBB.

When I checked the KBB, the only selection is LE which has all options/packages that the car has. that's why I chose it. It also show price as private seller $31k.. then I thought i got the good deal.. but anyway.. it's too late.

Thanks for confirming this.

Agreed on the Malbec though...I hate when it looks purplish, I love when it looks like black cherry and actual blak.

I don't use KBB anymore. Edmunds is more realistic, unfortunately.

Like I didn't know that was coming.

It's OK, guys. One man's trash is another man's treasure. Nothing personal.

Surprised the LEs dont have some kind of special badging somewhere, or do they?

Jealous of those red seats thought, had they been available with a stick shift, that's what I would've ended up with for sure
