The Most Expensive Car On Autotrader Is An $8.7 Million Used Mazda 3
The Most Expensive Car On Autotrader Is An $8.7 Million Used Mazda 3-August 2024

There are a lot of mistakes in online , typically “manual” vehicles that end up having a “PRNDL” by the shifter. But it gets far worse than that, like the fact that the most expensive car listed on Autotrader right now is a nearly $9 million . Yes, it’s a typo, but it’s a glorious typo.

Maybe you would pay $9 million for a budget front-wheel-drive car that starts at less than $20,000. Good for you. You know what you want. But most people would probably rather have the , or the all listed under it for half of that price.

Welcome to the hilarious realm of pricing typos, where the Toyota Sienna minivans and Chevrolet Equinox of the world get to share the same retail space as the highly collectable supercars.

The amazing thing is that this isn’t limited to a few dealers. Just like tons of the “manual” cars listed online end up being automatic, a good portion of the most expensive listings on Autotrader are there by mistake. On the first page of all listings sorted from most to least expensive, 10 of the 25 price listings are typos.

You want a Mazda 3 with not too many miles, maybe 40,000, you say? Have at it. It’ll only cost quadruple the amount of money you’ll earn in your lifetime.

What about a new Toyota Sienna LE? Minivans are , but apparently they’ve gotten good enough to be in the $3.3 million bracket.

Your kids will be sure to go to school and tell their friends how cool their parent was, for making the responsible decision and going for a people hauler over the slightly higher priced LaFerrari. That thing is too low to the ground anyway.

We can’t forget about the Toyota 86 for a cool $3.1 million, its package coming complete with all of the beautiful handling you could ever ask for—and none of the power, of course. Did you think a few extra million was ?

The problem with the Sienna and 86 listings seems to be just an extra number added onto the end of their prices, since the Sienna has a $34,000 MSRP and a $3.3 million listing while the 86 has a $32,000 MSRP and a $3.1 million listing.

But the whole thing is kind of incredible—that dealers don’t maybe, just maybe, consider double checking online listings to make sure they’re right, since their whole job is to sell vehicles with proper ad descriptions and prices that are at least fathomable.

For $2,000, Could This 2004 Saab 9-5 Be An Arc You Covet?
I like wagons. Today’s Saab 9-5 is a wagon, so, obviously I like it. Maybe its price will be something we can all like. Considering its reputation for customer loyalty, I’m guessing that few of you are present Subaru owners. How else can you explain the 65-percent Crack Pipe loss...

For $13,500, This 2000 Honda Insight Hides A Pretty Big Secret
You‘ll need some literal insight to see just what’s so special about today’s Insight, but will its price prove that particular perspicacity to be all for naught? Rather than looking inward, let’s—for the moment at least—look back, to last Friday in fact. There we had a , the last and...
