Buying a new LC seems like a really bad idea. When I look at them used, they are losing about $10k/yr in value for the first 5+ years. I would of course be buying for the long-haul, several previous LC went over 250k, but things change. Lots of reasons why I might have to sell long before I want to. I would not want in five years to be financially challenged, and selling my well-maintained LC, knowing I lost $50k on top of all the extra maintenance.
I have money down on a 2021, should arrive soon, refundable. I'm really thinking buy a 2016 would be wiser and more responsible. I also have money down on a Cybertruck, also refundable, but gonna be a while, and my 100 is starting to worry me.
I would not enjoy a 2021 any more than a 2016. Even if I keep a 2021 15 years, it will still cost me more than buying a 5-yr-old LC and keeping it ten years, then buying another expensive something.
But, the 2021 might hold value better than any LC has in a while. Maybe. Few of us seem to buy new, for obvious financial reasons. An 80-series did and a Tundra does hold value, but the LC is just hemorrhaging money when driven off the lot. Hard to find enjoyment in that.
