Are 1LE's that rare?
I'll be in the market for a 2014 1LE next summer, so have obviously spent every spare minute on this site
Between this site, cars.com, ebay, and others...the 1LE's asking prices seem very far off from KBB...by 10-20%...or $4-$8K higher than KBB private party value. I see a few out there, but are they really that rare that they're selling for way over KBB value? The only thing I can't see online is how much they're actually selling for...just the asking price. |

Well, the '13 1LE's are even more rare (cigarette).

I live here in Naples, Fl and I am sure there are probably some here but I havent seen any except for mine of course, so I do think they are few and far between...

Saw a LE at the dealership this morning for $45k. pretty much what they go for. Have you considered buying a used garage queen and adding the LE package yourself? You can buy a whole kit from GM. You should consider it if you're desperate to save a buck.

They are all over Indy. Not rare around here at all.

Adding a "complete 1LE" package "a la carte" would not be cost effective at all, as he would still have to swap rear diff, tranny, mags, etc, and dare I even say software changes to the ABS/Traction Control, to make it all "1LE" like.

That's right! I forgot it's running a different rear! Ya the OP is definitely better off finding an LE. Check CarMax they will ship the cars out to you pretty affordably.

Not desperate to save a buck, just wondering if that's what they go for. If that's what they go for, that's what I'll have to pay.
It'll be a second weekend vehicle, so in no rush to get one and will wait for the right deal. It's just the first vehicle I've ever looked for that the asking price is so far over KBB value. Also looking to make it a road trip. Fly to where the car is and drive it home. Always wanted to do a cross country (or partial) roadtrip. |

I bought my 2013 brand new in Oct 2012, and paid $41K for a 2SS with NPP and Heritage Grille.

I live in Los Angeles. Only seen 1 or 2 on the road ever since they re-introduced the 1le's. But every time I go to a dealer I see 1 or 2 on the lot so it might just be that people aren't buying them here. I've also heard they're going out of production in 2016. If thats true, they'll be rare soon enough.

Depends on what you consider "rare" From what I can tell, the 13's that sell on this site move in less than a week mostly. Unless it's Yellow.
