I never like comparing used with new because it's largely irrelevant.
At one time there would have been someone saying "Why buy an Echo when you can buy 'X'?" about that Echo that's now only worth 3k. All very well saying "it's cheaper" but then you could just wait five years and buy a second-hand CR-Z for half the price or wait ten years and buy it for a quarter of the price.
A new car can only be realistically compared with another new car, or nearly-new at a push. If everyone thought "a used car is cheaper - I'll buy that" then the flow of cars would eventually run out...
