*** I am not posting this in the Q60 forum because Fetucini will not be a forum member. Just posting here to share the purchase. ***
Some of you read my recent post regarding the 2018 Q60 3.0 coupe loaner vehicle I was saddled with whilst the polar beast (my M35) was in the shop. Meanwhile, we have been looking to trade our other car - the giant SUV for months - Fetucini is in charge of finding the replacement since she will drive it 99% of the time. She didn't find anything that really grabbed her so she placed the searching on hold.
However, after 6 days and few drives in the Q60, she fell hopelessly in love. She knew how I felt about the loaner, but she really wanted one - well equipped like the Polar Beast. So ... I called Geoffery (my service rep) on Monday and he fixed her up with a sales person. They recently took in a 2017 Q60 3.0 Luxe with all three extra packages, plus mood lighting, ground lighting, and aniline leather. When I built a 2018 model at the website, and added all the extras in this car, it totalled $57,445. They had 3-4 other Q60s that were slightly less expensive, but this was the only one in Hagane Blue Metallic and that is her fav color.
This is a 2017 CPO with 8,000 miles. It was on the 'christmas whatever' sale reduced to $41,900. Tuesday, Fetucini took me to see it, we made an offer of $40,000 and it was rejected. They came back with $38,500, so I signed the papers, called the bank, and set up the transfer. They did me well trading the SUV, including an oil / filter change, and a complete detail of the Q60. The balance due transferred this morning, and Fetucini dropped off the SUV, and left with the Q60. She drove it to her Mum's and snapped some pictures.
This was a $57,000 car with only 8k miles, was in pristine condition, and still lost $18,000 in value in one year!
