My justification for jumping into this nutso car market was that its all relative if you have another car to sell. For example, I had a paid off 2017 Mazda 3 that I paid about 18500 for. Because of the used car market, I traded it in to BMW for $15100. That car only cost me about $3K to own over the 4 years I've owned it (not including gas etc). So it made paying slightly extra for the 2021 M2C a no brainer for me. Made it totally justifiable.

You're right the market does even these things out especially if you have a desirable trade-in. Now the hard is deciding between an OG and a Comp.
