It is divided into three types of authorized brand 4S shops (Franchised Dealership),ordinary used car dealers (Local Used Car Dealer), and car rental dealers (such as Enterprise, Hertz, etc.)
In authorized 4S stores, gold owners can not only buy new cars, but small gold owners can also buy manufacturer-certified second-hand cars (Manufacturer’s CPO cars), and ordinary second-hand car dealers can buy self-certified second-hand cars (CPO cars) and non-certified ordinary used cars. What you can buy at a car rental agency are clearly marked second-hand cars that cannot be bargained.
First of all, explain what is called CPO (Certified Pre-Owned). CPO is a used car that has been tested by a manufacturer or car dealer and has been refurbished. Currently, there are two types on the market, one is the auto brand manufacturer certification (Factory /Manufacturer’s certified pre-owned vehicles), of course, can only be bought in the brand’s4S stores, the quality is relatively guaranteed; the other is the dealer’s certificate-owned vehicles, the inspection of each car The standards are different, and they will probably list their own more than 100 certification standards. The standards are created by themselves and there is no unified system certification. Therefore, it can only be said that the quality may be guaranteed. It is very likely that there is a big discrepancy with the manufacturer’s certification process. Many of them may just claim that there are more than 100, and they do not get the manufacturer’s warranty. If you need to extend the original warranty, you still need to buy it from the manufacturer yourself. This and the manufacturer’s certification for used cars comes with a very different original warranty.
The universal law is «wool comes out of sheep». Car certification allows you to be reliable,and you will pay more for the comfort of the car, so you can consider CPO for not bad money, and only consider second-hand cars certified by the manufacturer, but It should be noted that the CPO does not guarantee the history of second-hand cars, and there are many accident records. It is just that the repair and packing by the dealership seems to be very good, so it is difficult to predict what the condition of the car is.
When buying an ordinary second-hand car at a second-hand car store, the principle you must keep in mind is that in a capitalist society, the vampire nature of the business can suck you more for one dollar, and it will definitely not suck you 50 cents less, but you must also understand that the store must Money employees want money, where the operating costs are, and they must earn you.
In a market where black-heated merchants and conscience merchants co-exist, you can judge by word of mouth presented by Yelp and other channels, but the two principles Lao Sang wants to share is that he says it’s important, and third-party inspection is the insurance. He says it’s cost-effective. It’s a bullshit. The price KBB (www.kbb.com)checks whether it can be low or low, but in this way, it is the same as the process of labor costs with private transactions. It is indeed more expensive than private transactions. I can weigh it myself.
