Also, you better check that math on what 3.9% costs over 5 years on $40k. You are a million miles off. $40,000 at 3.9% for 5 years is $4091 in interest. How does that work into your calculation?

Maybe the math isn't perfect. I'm not going to back track a math error right now since you seem to have that shyt in a smash. But, you're telling me, I can improve the value on my car by altering its OEM state if I powedercoat to an unoriginal color "if" that rim color is in fashion??? That's a first.
Sketchy math or not. The reality is you lose some value buying the 12. There's no way around that. And I stick by buying with what you want because you pay out somewhere regardless when you buy on the cusp of 2 model years. The best deal is the one you can make on the car you really want. Cuz if you regret later? You will lose regardless... that was my real point in the math.
