RC Valuation
Wanted to let all of you know. I absolutely love my RC but it is too small for me and my family. Impulse buy. The car is in immaculate condition like it just left the lot. Over a year old only 12k miles. Wondering what the trade in value is on an original sticker of $53k? One year later only $35k?! $20k drop in one year. To think Lexus holds its value when it was sold to me. Very disappointed. I expected a loss but not like that.

i'll always feel bad for people who buy at sticker price.... depreciation on a brand new car is horrible no matter what model/brand vehicle you buy. i just bought my RC in january with a sticker price of 51K and chewed them down to 42K. these vehicles are marked up a ton.

I traded in an RC back in January of this year with 18,500 miles and I got $39,800 for a trade in value and then 3 months later I missed it so much I went and bought another one.

Trying to sell my 2015 RC350 F Sport ($52k new) with 10.5K miles in perfect condition. No action at all. Trying to sell for $39k. I've never had a new car lose this much value in two years. It looks like I'll have to drop to $34k to sell. Are others finding the same loss?

I really feel bad for first year buyers that paid full sticker or more.
