$150k would be the top dog Model S with all the whiz-bang shit at today's price tag. If you don't need all of the fancy features you can get something for less than 1/3 that but it wouldn't be something that began life at $150k, if that makes sense. I think our 5 year old car was like $80k new and we paid about $40k for it so about 50% value in just over 5 years. Most ICE vehicles are going to lose about 50% at about the three year mark.
