I have four cars and only need two now. The only reason I keep my first gen Scion xB is because it looks terrible since I hit a deer with it at 150k miles, it now has 225k miles, and it still drives and feels pretty much like new - but it’s only worth about $500 used. No point in selling. I’ll drive it into the ground.

But I’m willing to sell the FR-S “relatively” cheap, just to get the money to pay off my house that much faster. Frankly, for 195k miles I basically raced that thing on the back roads of KY every day on the best “street legal” Michelin sport tires on beautifully maintained Kentucky twisties. I’m kinda bored with it.

Used cars have been pricey for the last 10 years. My husband sells for Honda and he found a 2005 Toyota Corolla one owner with 84k miles for my 17 year old. He paid a employee cost price of 3k. Hubby said the dealership would have sold the car for 6k.

My brother has the same car (Scion) and has just over 300k miles on it. It’s faded from the FL sun but it still drives like new.

first gen Scion xB

I loved ours. If they still made them, we'd still have one.
