Is a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle a Good Buy?

You may have wondered if purchasing a certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicle is worth it as it probably costs more than a regular used vehicle.  However the higher quality of CPOs generally merits the additional expense as well as the advantage of costing much less than a brand new car.  As an article by Car and Driver explains, “buying a two-year-old CPO vehicle typically saves buyers about 25 percent versus the cost of a brand-new version.”  They add that a four-year-old CPO may be marked down by as much as 40 percent when compared to a new vehicle.   

As a buyer of a CPO vehicle, you can feel confident knowing it has gone through a manufacturer checklist that generally encompasses 150 points and provides a vehicle history report.  It will also come with a manufacturer-backed warranty that is often an extension of slightly less coverage than the original factory warranty although programs do differ so be sure to read the fine print.  

At Dan Tobin Chevrolet Buick GMC dealership, our entire certified pre-owned inventory has gone through a rigorous inspection, refurbishing and certification by specially trained Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC certified mechanics.  Our CPOs offer customers an attractive option to buying a more expensive brand new car while providing the opportunity to get a high-quality vehicle that meets the demanding standards set by the manufacturer.  In addition the warranty offers peace of mind in the event of problems down the road.
