If you like the car, and it's been well-cared for, you did OK...point is, over the life of the car, a grand here or there in purchase is small compared to maintenance, insurance, fuel and everything else involved in ownership. Those other costs will be higher on this, than, say, my daughter's Corolla...but you weren't buying this for the same reasons of economy and low cost...
