  1. Out f curiosity what did the thumping sound like? I have a noise coming g from the rear that I can only hear will going slow usually in EV mode on bumpy or uneven roads. Almost sounds like a golf ball in a box type noise. It’s subtle but very noticeable to me.
  2. Well the funny thing is that this is one of the cheapest priced MKZ's on the market. Most with this many miles are around $32-34k. I still have 4 years of payments left on the Lexus. I made bad a decision on the Lexus, trust me I know. My Lexus won't really break even until about 2.5 more years and at that time it'll have 131000 miles on it. If I put $k down on the MKZ with the amout of miles i'll be putting on it each year my break even will also be at around the 2.5 year mark but with far less miles. I also did a 75 month loan with the Lexus which was just plain stupid. With the MKZ my loan will be for 60 months and i'll have an identical monthly payment from the Lexus. I'm also approved a 1.9% apr on the MKZ. Currently on the Lexus I have a 2.6% APR.
  3. Hello everyone! I currently own a 2011 Lexus CT200h. I love the car but it's size is really getting to me and i'd like to get into something larger and alittle more luxurious. I'm in the market for a MKZ hybrid as a commute about 70 miles per day with 90% of those miles being highway. I currently average about 42 mpg with my CT200h. The problem with my Lexus is that it hasn't held it value as much as I expected it. I'm getting trade in offers no more than $15,500 on a car I still owe about $25,000 on. I recently found a 2013 MKZ hybrid with a lot of bells and whistles. It has the equipment group 203A package with a sunroof (not panoramic). The original sticker on the car has it at $43,350. The car has $22,500 miles on it and they are asking $29,900. Now what is inticing me more is that they are going to offer me $19k for me Lexus which is far more that what i'm being offered elsewhere. With $4000 down they can get me to $33k out the door (including TTL) for the MKZ. I'm concerned about the MKZ holding it's value throughout the years as I do put 25,000 miles a year on it. I'm also concerned about long term reliability to let's say 150,000 miles. I see that trade it on this car is only around $25,500 so it has me worried that it's not going to hold it's value well throughout the years. The only thing to base value off of is the older generation MKZ which do not seem to be holding their value well at all. I'm looking for some opinions here. Does this seem like a good deal or are their better deals out there?
