Our automotive tastes intersect at a few pints. I've had several BMWs as well as a Wrangler TJ- and I would have a GTI in my driveway today if any of the local VW dealers would hire service techs with opposable thumbs.
And yes, join us at CCBA- you'll fit right in!

I have just about no comps to go on.
A level II went for $24,800 with 1800 miles.
A level III with 8k fetched $23k.
And a level III with 2800 miles got $26k.
I would hope any dealer would keep this for sale off their own lot. Hope for $22k, I guess.

Don't forget MDX requires premium too!! Although we're doing really well with our '12 MDX. Just picked it up a couple weeks ago and averaging 19mpg in day-to-day and got 21.5mpg on all highway trip this weekend. The 2011 FWD Sienna manivan it replaced was averaging 20.5 and 23 on long trips.

I don't think a Prius V is good for 50 mpg. Low 40's, yes.
