Car purchasing question?

Not only have i done the math, I’ve done the research

I’ve pulled 20 CR-V‘s on CarGuru within a 100mi radius of me... even several with less-than 50k miles on the clock... not one of the 20 is at or above original sale price ( regardless if base / EX / EX-L / Touring)

buddy of mine sells at an area Honda outlet... he says there are always some dummies with no negotiating will or acumen and thus paying sticker - but used vehicles right now are SOOOO overpriced that their store has plenty of room to come down off ask
Prove it
 
What exactly is a "police package" on a Honda CR-V? A built in donut holder on the dash?

170 hp v8 out of a crown vic and extra wide seats so that it’s slower and gets way worse mileage.

I’m not doubting his crv is worth more than he paid assuming it wasn’t new and he hasn’t put much mileage on it (Both of the cars I’ve purchased in the last 3 years are worth over msrp and one is sold because of it) but there is no factory “police package” from Honda in the us and he didn’t import it from Asia.

Any “police package” would be aftermarket. Assuming it was actually advertised with it the previous owner or dealer probably added flashing lights retrofitted into the headlights and taillights by drilling holes and gluing in some leds. A buddy in high school was a volunteer fire fighter and did this to his car (ironically a crv) and went around telling everyone it was a sanctioned government issued emergency vehicle or some shit.
