Thoughts on buying a demo car?

[Anonymous]

2020 w 15k miles.
Everything looks good. Curious about this vs a lease or just one owner car.... this was fleet and used as a "demo"

That’s a ton of mikes for a demo car. Was it one driver?

Not sure-- what even is a demo? Lol.. is that a loaner for the dealership??

I'd be fine with it if there was a big enough price discount.

My aunt bought a demo car, but hers had more like 7000 miles after 18 months or so on the lot. She got a nice deal, tho I don't know exact numbers, and the car was in great shape. She hasn't had any issues and would absolutely do it again.

I bought a car that a salesman was driving. It had less than 2500 miles.

15k miles is a lot. That doesn't sound like a demo car to me. Someone is lying to you.

2 year old car with 15K miles. isn't high miles.

was probably a dealer loaner, rather than a demo car. no dealer is going to keep a 2 year old car on as a demo.

generally no more than 6 months...

if tia good deal go for it. still has factory bumper to bumper and drivetrain warranty.

se if you can get an extended bumper to bumper in the deal..

I thought demos were called at 3k miles. There’s some regulation that allows the dealer to still classify it as a new cat sale. Not at all clear why that matters but 15k is used…..perhaps CPO.
