The major drawback I see is by the time you buy you car there will only be 10 months left on the bumper to bumper warranty

 

So I finally went and test drove the car. That thing is a beast the salesman was new to selling cars ( he wasn't pushy or anything and he was kinda in training ) but anyways I wanted to test drive it by myself but he said they won't allowed but he said for me to drive it like he wasn't even there. Didn't even ask if i had a license but i was wrong on some of the features it has the Premium and Technology Package, Bose, Navigation, Backup Camera, Heated seats and Heated Steering Wheel, and now has 5375 miles after i just got done test driving it and clean Carfax report. The KBB and NADA is estimating it around 28,400 I didn't know that the dealership was a no haggle lot but they did lower the price to 25,200 because of military discount and they will throw in the rear spoiler for me. It also still has 9 months 31k miles on the original bumper to bumper warranty and has the 7 year 100k limited warranty, 24 hour roadside, and rental reimbursement included. I think I'm gonna hop on it thought id hit the forums 1 last time. I been looking everywhere and haven't found one that can compete with this one, Carmax is selling similar ones with 20k+ miles for 26,998.

 

It does sound like a good deal to me. If you consider the spoiler is being included, you're actually getting the car as it sits for less than $25k. My only concern would be knowing the true history of the car. I would want to somehow confirm that it really is a corporate fleet car that wasn't driven much and not a problem plagued car someone dumped.

 

But the only kind of service for that is Carfax and Autocheck but we all know their not 100% accurate. So its really no real way of knowing which sucks.

 

If you like the car buy it but throw those KBB number out as they are very high.


You could buy a 2013 new for that

 

Reice: share pics when you finally have the ride.....

 

The dealer knows where it came from. I have had calls from potential buyers of cars I have traded in the past. Would be interesting to see how your dealer responds to a request for specific info about the previous owner. BTW, I'm not saying it is a problem car... Just that someone turned it in with very low mileage for some reason.

 

Both the Carfax and Autocheck said the car came from a fleet im guessing some company or something like that. But i pulled the trigger and bought it, they still owe me the spoiler so ill be getting that sometime middle January when i get back from leave. I would post pics but its too dark outside, so far im loving it still getting used to the Nav and stuff. The bumper to bumper expires Oct 14 so thats some relief to have a nice warranty still on it.

 

Congratulations! I'm thinking you got yourself a great car! You are right about the warranty and getting them to add the spoiler really is a nice touch. Enjoy the car...

 

Oh one thing i did notice about the car is the Carmax and Autocheck said the car was a previous fleet car so like a company or business was using it. I was checking the Navi out and looked at previous destinations and All of them was Hotels and Conference Centers in California. So it looks like it was driven minimally for work since it only has 5600 miles on the car. Im happy with the car even more when the spoiler they threw in finishes off the car. Thanks for everyones help, info, and input photos coming soon.
