As long as you are not getting ripped off price wise-which you are not-get it.
i agree. The price is not really that far off on the book value and if it is just what you want, go for it.

In your opinion, do I still need a 3rd party inspection if the car is CPOed?

My issue is 15's and 16's are virtually the same price, especially paying almost 47k for this car. That said, it's your money, if you like it buy it.

you

You are right. Its the yellow color getting my way. I don't like the change to yellow in 2016 so i am limited. And there are not many 2015 yellows out with the options I want and are accident free.

If it’s CPO I would personally not get a mechanical inspection. I would just try to get as comfortable as possible that is does not have any paint work. Wait until the last few days of the month to get a better deal if you can or want to. With it being CPO that does make it a better deal.

Congrats, It's been a long search for you!
Glad you found one you're excited about and pulling the trigger on it.

That is one beautiful "Garage Queen". Congratulations

But, never say it's your last. I tried that 2 Corvettes ago.
