Hi All

I am in a bit of a pickle. I have been looking at Prado's and have narrowed my search down to the below two:

2013 Build My2014 registered GXL with 22500kms $48500 1 year warranty remaining facelift model with 3.0 engine
12/2015 Build My2016 registered GXL with 7000kms $55700 2 years warranty remaining new 2.8 litter

or

2016 Build Brand new for $59500 gxl 2.8

Which one would you purchase and why?
To save some cash upfront i was going to get the 3.0 but thinking about it more for resale in 5-7 years the 2.8 would be a better sell i think...

If you were in my shoes which one would u go for???

Look at it this way. With the 3.0 you forgo 2 years warranty but have $10k for accessories, with the used 2.8 it is one year less warranty for $4k. Looking at those numbers I would still get new. Or the 3.0. If the used 2.8 was a few thousand less than I would buy it.
