Default Depreciation on RCF

I just joined the club, hello everyone!
I currently have a 2016 lexus IS 200t.
I'm very interested in getting a RCF but I'm going to wait till march 2017.
I looked at RCF for sale locally, they are around 50k-56k used.
I'm looking for an estimate how much a used RCF would have depreciated by march 2017.
Thanks guys

Not much more I would think, your not going to find an RCF for 40k for a long time, I think it stays mid 50k for a long time.

Also the mid 50k cars now are the beat to hell ones.

Also, its a local phenomena. I can tell you I could only find one RCF within 200 miles of San Diego for $55 and it had 18k miles. Everything else was higher, with most 2015 being between 60-65k. It looks like things are cheaper in Texas, so depreciation will be localized.

If you're considering trading into the RC F from your current IS200t, then the biggest factor to be worried about is how much your IS200t will depreciate from now til March 2017.

^^^This...All the cars in this class will experience a quick depreciation and then hold on for quite some time.

I traded in my ex RCF about 3 weeks ago and they offered $53K at first then agreed on $55K because of the PTS Joe Z. Dealership posted for sale for $59K with 11,xxx miles (Porsche). RCF at the auctions are going for $52K-$53K

What year was your car? Did you consider selling privately?

What package did your RCF had? Original MSRP would help.

I was just looking into an RCF today as well. Thinking about putting my 2IS back for sale as is and maybe looking into a used one for DD.

I have seen ~ 52k Online, with okay miles. We all know the engine is very solid as its pretty much the same found in the ISF. Much better route to go than the M3/M4 engine with same amount of miles.

Maybe when the LC model drops, the RCF pricing will go a little lower. If its in the mid to high 40s, it may just be doable for me. I do love the interior in the F

I've been looking at RCFs and it looks like you can get them in mid 50s all day every day

I guess if you're willing to ship the car across country, you can save a bunch

Actually, no premium or performance or ML. I see ACC. The car was never $75

Ok. I see ventilated seats, so it has premium
