Hop on your local Craigslist and look at comparable jeeps. That's a very hard question to answer, there's so many variables.

So when do dealer ships discount the 14' models to prepare for the 15'? Or the best time to buy a 14' model

its cool seeing so many wrx owners on here especially these much talked about '15s 
are you referring to the wrx's?? if so, in Cali most subi dealerships i visited marked up the prices on the '14 hatchbacks and aren't budging on giving you the best price even for a base. '14 sedans could probably be brought down a lil under invoice price if you try hard enough.

gave the car a long awaited wash today.
been driving it everyday the past week or so, because i cracked a wheel on my other car. forgot just how awful the gas mileage is. luckily, the new wheel should be coming soon for the other car and i won't have to subject this car to anymore bad weather.

That's accurate. I was just replying to the off comment originally made.
No one is badge flossing though, kind of a dumb term really....a Rolls Royce w/ a giant hood ornament is a mainly badge flossing, you could say that about mercedes, bmw, Cadillac etc they are indeed status symbols. don't confuse badge flossing with marketing a product in Japan vs. America, the vehicle is basically identical.
Real badge flossing is driving a CLA or maybe a 320i.....budget luxury rides, 2 words that should never be associated together
Nobody really buys a Lex to floss, they buy the IS250 because it's a very affordable mid-size RWD sedan, comparing used of course. I would rather buy an IS250 over a C, 3, or A4, simply for the longevity/lower cost of the vehicle. I'd lease European over JDM though, would never buy.

2012.. Last real year of production for the last gen A3. There were a few 2013s but they were really just the last run of 2012s with different VINs

Repped, love the vinyl color you switched too. If I was you I'd want to daily that thing, it's bad
Gas mileage?! What's that?
. Just calculated gas mileage for my Lightning: 10.8 MPG. Granted that was ALL city, and I was also getting 10 Smiles Per Gallon as well . I know I can squeeze a little more outta it if I tried.

Is your car wrapped? Thing looks beautiful.
Anybody know the best way to wash a car? I always end up getting some of those dry spots.
Isn't too bad but I'd like to have a perfect one.

I'm saying the moniker and their entire marketing strategy was founded on Americas desire to badge floss. Toyota knew no matter how well they made their cars, Americans wouldn't buy it if it was associated with a Toyota badge. Lexus originated as a brand sold exclusively in the USA for this exact reason.
Many people don't seem to realize that only in the America are cars like the CLA and 320i marketed as "luxury" cars. This is of course, once again, due to Americas desire to badge floss. Mercedes makes all kinds of cars that run the gamut from transport loaders, to utilitarian vehicles, to sports cars, to entry level compacts to luxury cars and motorcycles. Only in America do people associate anything made by Mercedes with luxury solely due to the badge.

Dry spots means either the water is too contaminated or something with your paint, or could be as simple as you not drying it quick enough.
