That actually seems pretty fair to me. Driving it off the lot and only losing 6% is solid.

This, only 6% less than what you paid seems pretty in market right now. In previous markets something driven off the lot wouldnt be taken back for probably at least 10% off what you paid even with no miles on it.

New cars depreciate like a rock right away typically. The market now is definitely adjusted a bit from what is usual, but not many people now are paying sticker price for even a slightly used car vs. brand new of same year. IT would be kind of silly to do that overall anyways unless there was basically zero supply of said new car.
