Are the Limiteds finally getting some love?

[2021nightshade4x4]

I see a 2021 Limited with 13k miles going for $53,998 at CarMax. Anything’s possible - it could very well not sell - but given that 1.) CarMax advertises a no haggle pricing system, and 2.) this is likely not the first 4Runner they have sold, I have a feeling they know exactly what they can get away with.

If this is the case, mine could be worth more than when I bought it.

No one I know takes the limiteds seriously .
They are mainly for picking up groceries or your husband’s dry cleaning.

You must know only ignorant people, as every educated person knows the Limited is the best 4Runner built.

are you sure?

Full time 4WD is pretty awesome.

 

[CutthroatSlam]

They are best in class for handling speed bumps in school parking lots.

Mine handles gravel roads quite nicely when called upon.

No one takes most Runners, especially the Limited, seriously.

they hate because they don't have a torsen centre diff so they salty

I respect limited owners out there. At least most don't try and make their runners look like a TRDP...

Perfect time to sell your 4R and start a new hobby, OP.

Interesting you should say that.

On one of these boards there’s an owner with a Limited who replaced the 20 inch wheels/tires, replaced the Limited front end with a TRD Pro front end, and deleted all the Limited exterior trim. Luxury interior. Badass exterior. Full time 4WD. If Toyota offered a truck like that, that’s the way I’d want it.

Hence why I said "most". I did see that post and was highly debating on buying a limited at first but I'm not a poser so there's that... But maybe there should be a "pro limited" version that takes both interior/exteriors queues.

I replied with something not very nice. I'll leave this instead.

Do you plan to sell ASAP? Otherwise, it's kind of meaningless what Carmax is listing at. Dealers have been throwing crazy list prices on desirable used cars and seeing who might bite. The market is changing though. The supply chain issue is getting better and inflation and high interest rates are starting to impact both new and used car sales.

I've been in the market for a 2002-2004 Corvette Z06 for about 4 months now. The asking prices were beyond bonkers and the crazier the prices got, the more Z06s started popping up as these sellers figured suckers were paying those prices. Thing is, hardly any of them are selling and remain for sale for months on end, even at dealers. Just until about 3 weeks ago, have I seen the asking prices start to drop and some actually becoming somewhat reasonable. The point being, stupid high list prices for new and used cars is subsiding and will likely plummet over the next 6+ months. If a recession hits, a number of people will lose their jobs and many of those people bought cars at stupid high prices and will be desperate to unload as they can no longer afford the cars.

Not sure about 02-04 Z06 but it’s crazy how long the C6 Z06’s have stuck right around $45k. At least since I started paying attention in 2015… flat… level though COVID dip and post COVID surge. Doug Tabbutt from VINwiki was dead accurate about Corvette sellers. A weird bunch.

Is this about what you’re seeing early 2000’s C5’s go for, too?

$45k-55kish is what I've been seeing C6 Z06s listing for over the past few months. I don't know what they were selling for prior to this year though.

Prior to mid-2021, C5 Z06s were going for $20K-35K depending on year, mileage, and condition, and to some extent, color. It's been $30K-45K for most of this year, but most anything with a $32K+ price hasn't sold. I've seen some $40K+ ultra low mile C5 Z06s sitting on Corvette-only dealer lots since January. I don't know how you stay in business if you're not selling anything.

I sold my 2022 Toyota 4Runner limited to Carmax today for $52,000. I paid MSRP, $50,195, plus tax, three months/3200 miles ago.

The guy at Carmax told me my vehicle would most likely wind up on the west coast where the market is much better than Central Ohio.

For reference, the dealer I purchased it from offered me $47,000.
