Default 2011 or 2013 XFR

A happy hello and Sunday to all....

So here is my dilemma.

I have narrowed it down to two pre-owned XFR's. One a 2011 and the other a 2013. The 2013 has about half the miles, and as would be expected is considerably more money. While this is not a deal breaker, spend is always a consideration.

I am wondering if there are members out there who have owned both years, or are especially familiar with the XFR, who can actively point out pros & cons between the two years? I have done some research and am aware of some minor differences, such as headlights, audio, etc but am curious if there is anything demonstrative that I am missing around performance, handling, etc. I'm leaning toward the newer of the two, but given the price difference I'd be remiss in not exploring both.

Thanks!

Sam

I'd go with the 2013 hands down...Warranty, fewer miles and most issues have been ironed out...Good luck

I would go with the 2013. A difference is the 8-speed auto that is new to 2013 (6-speed in 2011). Not sure if there is a performance boost from the transmission, but mileage is better than my friend's 2010 XFR (Same poor driving habits). Suspension, motor are otherwise the same between the two other than the more cosmetic things you pointed. Good luck, either choice is a good one.
