Driving off the lot with a luxury vehicle might seem like a far-off dream for some. But when you consider a pre-owned vehicle, it might make that dream more of a reality. Here are some of the benefits to considering a pre-owned luxury model.shaking hands after purchasing a used luxury car

Great Value

You’ve probably heard that a vehicle loses value the moment you drive it off of the lot. Drivers can take advantage of this reduced value when buying a pre-owned vehicle. Because the previous owner has already depreciated the value, you can get it for an even better price. You can even find vehicles with low miles and minimal owners for a great price when buying used. Additionally, at a more affordable price, you might be able to opt for a more luxurious model.

You’ll also get to enjoy less depreciation over the ownership of the vehicle in the time that you own it. Then, you can factor in other cost-savings, such as insurance rates. Insurance rates for a brand-new vehicle tend to be higher than they are for a used one. Maintenance and repairs could also be cheaper because it’s more likely that you’ll be able to find used replacement parts or that maintenance will be covered by a recall.

Better Features

Because you’re able to save so much on the purchase of a used vehicle, you can often opt for better features. When you buy used, you get more for your money, which means that you can get that added technology or upgraded safety package. By the time the vehicle is a couple of years old, there’s a lot more data available about which features are worthwhile and which ones are a waste of money. You can learn from previous owners and prevent expensive repairs or out-of-pocket costs.

Certified Pre-Owned Warranty

Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of buying new is that you often get a good warranty with your purchase. Today, many used vehicles also come with a warranty. When you buy certified pre-owned, you can enjoy the same assurances that your vehicle is in good working condition. In addition to a certified pre-owned warranty, many used car dealerships also offer additional warranties. This means that you get to not only save money on the purchase of the vehicle, but you also get many of the same warranties in case your vehicle requires maintenance or repairs.

Better Inventory

When you buy new, you might be limited as to the individual features you can get in your vehicle. When you buy pre-owned, you can shop until you find the vehicle that perfectly matches your needs. If you want a certain color, model, feature, or year, you can shop around until you find the right one. Many dealerships will also record your preferences and notify you when they find a used vehicle that matches them.

When you buy used, you can get a good value on the best vehicles, including luxury models. With a lower price tag, reduced depreciation rates, better features, and a wider inventory, there are many reasons to consider a used luxury vehicle.
