Buying a Highlander

TW,

Thinking about buying a 2014+ highlander limited with captain chairs (new or newly used). I know 2016 highlanders now have an 8 speed AT and a new direct injection engine. In your opinion, should I buy a low mile 2014 for 32k or just go ahead to buy a new 2016 for 38k?

Thanks!

 

New. 6k difference and you won't have to worry about how the car was treated in those low miles.

 

Maybe 17 has that drive train but 16s dont

 

Either way our 16 is a great family vehicle

 

Yeah I think I read it somewhere about the new drive train. Probably on the 17 not the 16.

 

That's 15% depreciation though.

 

Its all how you view the price of the car. For me, I only buy new because I dont want to risk getting that one car that has had a bunch of issues but on paper looks like a great deal.

 

New, my step mom just got a brand new one. That thing is very very very very very very nice.

 

Just to give everyone an update after buying the highlander for almost a year. We got a 16 limited last Christmas and it now has 10000 miles on it. I think it is a great family hauler and a great compliment to my taco.
