Default differences of 2011 and 2012

so ive been planning on buying a new 2012 v6 premium either black or kona blue but now im looking at some used ones and ive seen some pretty good prices on cars all with real low miles. Is it worth the extra money for the new 2012 or is a barely used 2011 just as good. Thoughts? Thanks appreciate it.

Practically the same between the two. I believe the only differences are that the 2012 has a built in garage opener, and it has 3 steering wheel settings for different resistance/feels. Other than that just some minor color changes but with black or kona then it's all the same.

I'd say get a deal on an '11 instead of holding out for two relatively small features.

Hi avbguy9,

As pdonket said, the 2012 has Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS) with driver-selectable efforts for Comfort, Normal, or Sport handling. Some other additions include sun visor storage, illuminated visor vanity mirrors, and a universal garage door opener.

If you are leaning towards a 2012, make sure you call our Marketing Program Headquarters at 800.334.4375 for incentive info. Let me know if I can answer any other questions!

Appreciate the assist! BTW, I'm working on your PM now.
