The price is good...if you could pick a different jeep it would be even better lol. Hideous IMO! Way too much gaudy red crap puked all over it. I love red but not how they did it. They ruined it

I thought @Jeepersteve71 was selling his for a moment. It looks similar, though not identical.

Similar with the color and the same top. It’s crazy what these things are going for. I don’t know of another brand except for maybe Mercedes and BMW that you can get that kind of resale value out of after the vehicle has 130,000 + miles. Most vehicles at least drop under 10,000 at that point.

Executive level German cars have the worst resale value of about any car on the market, I know that from a lot of experience with them.

We're fortunate that Wranglers hold their resale value so well. It's not so good if you're a buyer, but excellent if you're a seller!

Yep, I hear ya. I had a 2003 BMW M5, which was around 90k brand new (fully loaded) in 2003. I bought it used in 2013 for $15,000, which is what they sell for! Crazy, isn't it?
 
My LJ is the only vehicle I’ve ever owned that seems to go up in value the longer I own it... I paid 11k for it 3 yrs ago and can’t find one under 13 anywhere near me.



Guess that makes up for my lack of retirement savings....
