It's the $22k w/ the clear coat that was the questionable thing, not the clear coat in itself.
I figured mine with 88k miles and a few little cosmetic issues (similar things, interior handles, etc.) is only worth around $14kish. (Though that is here in the US, not Canada)
Don't want to talk you out of it, just don't want to see you upset with the depreciation later, they are starting to bottom out around $10k for a ratty one, and nice ones are to be had for $15k.
If *all* of them go for more up there, then don't mind our complaining about the cheap fast cars down here.
