Certified Pre-owned Car- is there really a difference?

February 15, 2012

I've recently been looking to buy a new car and need a little advice.

Some of the cars that I've looked at are a little bit more expensive because the dealerships claim say that they are "Certified Pre-owned Vehicles."

I'm just wondering if there is really a difference? Is it worth it to buy a CPV or is it a waste of money?

I know that they have to put the car through a series of tests in order to be qualified as CPV but I would assume that other dealerships also test their cars.

Should I go with a CPV or go with a less expensive comparable car?

    Rep. Regina Quick pulls no punches on Chamber scorecard

Instead, she sent over this statement Wednesday morning and she did not mince her words. (Links and italicized portions are my own; otherwise, it's as she wrote it.) Dear Friends: read more
