I suppose I should be thinking like that since both are "affordable" for me. Based on the price (and from what I found on websites indicating whether it's a good deal), both seem to be about equal in that regard. That said, it would seem like you would say go with the newer model, even though it will obviously cost me more. I find it interesting though how kbb for example will give the car a certain value, and then another site like it will value it significantly less. I think the only thing that is/was swaying me was the fact that since there is no major differences between the 11 and the 13 and the specs are the same, I was feeling apprehensive about going with the 13 simply due to the newer model year. But considering it would have significantly less miles, perhaps it's a better move with both deals respectively being about the same.
Problem is, I'm as big of a deal hunter as most when it comes to buying anything, but since I'm not buying new, and there is limited availability when it comes to the color/options I want in a certified used Sport, I don't want to end up waiting around for a deal that might never come, especially when dealers research current market value, and pehaps I should just buy when it's available after trying to negotiate the best price I can get on it.
