Hypothetically, if it were possible, what would you suggest for purchase?

A new, <10 miles, 2017 Volt Premier with Adaptive Cruise Control for $34k + tax, tag etc. but before fed and state incentives.

or

A 2014 ELR with Nav and Adaptive Cruise Control with 8k miles, that's an MSO so it qualifies for the Fed and State tax credits and rebates for $33k + tax, tags etc., but before fed and state incentives.

I never heard of an ELR until I started reading this forum. After months of reading about the Volt, I started reading about the ELR. I don't think I've ever seen one in person, I'm not a Cadillac fan. But after reading all the raves about it, I think I want one over a Volt.

I've read that some people have found old left over MSO 2014's so I'm curious as to what people think.

Thanks in advance.

TIA

Homer

Given the O.P.'s hypothetical numbers, it seems like a no-brainer to me.

Since they cost the same, Buy the ELR. If you like it, you are done. If you don't like it, you can probably sell it for more than your cost (effectively pocketing the incentives).

You can always buy a Volt later, they are relatively common and still being made unlike the ELR.

Nothing about the Volt price screams "deal of the century". How many chances will you have to buy a new ELR at that price?
