Default Should I buy a CPO 2014 IS250 from Bay Area or San Diego County?

I live in San Francisco but visiting family for the week in San Diego. I remember when I sold my old 2008 IS250 in the Bay Area the used car prices seemed to be higher compared to San Diego.

I'm looking for a CPO 2014 IS250 from the Lexus dealership. What is a good price for these areas?

San Diego and especially Los Angeles seem to have more supply of the IS. Probably get a better deal in so-cal.

Seems like a fair price to me. I paid $29,500 for a CPO 2014 IS250 AWD with 24,000 miles.

Buy from a city with the LOWEST tax rate.

Seems like a decent price as well. I think you should test drive them and decide on what it is worth to you.

Usually charge you on the tax rate of your city not the city purchased.
