CPO vs. used: what's the difference?
A non-certified used vehicle is sold as-is or with a limited dealer warranty. A CPO vehicle has passed a manufacturer-defined inspection and comes with an extended factory-backed warranty, and often roadside assistance, for a higher price than an equivalent non-certified used vehicle.
Is CPO worth it on a luxury car?
Often yes. Luxury-brand repairs, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Porsche, tend to be more expensive, so the extended warranty that comes with certification can offset a meaningful amount of risk.
Does CPO cost more?
Yes, typically a premium over a comparable non-certified used vehicle, reflecting the inspection and extended warranty coverage.
Which brands' CPO is the best value?
It depends on the specific warranty terms, inspection standards, and pricing in the market at the time. Our team can walk through the current CPO programs across all six brands we sell.
