This trim is uncommon on the used market, so comparable listings are sparse. Treat the range as directional.

What's OTD?
Out-the-door is the total check you actually write — asking price + sales tax + doc fee + registration. Reddit “what I paid” reports are usually OTD, so this is the honest number to compare against.
Listing: $18,000 + $1,305 tax + $500 doc + $150 reg = $19,955
