[quote=Anonymous]What kind of car are you trying to purchase? Some car manufacturers are more likely to have quality control issues than others. Also, I always have to question why people sell a car that isn’t that old unless they were annoyed by it.

We bought our DD a Honda Civic. We were aiming for a 2016 but the certified ones were insanely priced and had cosmetic damage to the exterior and interior. We decided to price new to see if it was worth the savings. At sticker price there was a huge difference but once we negotiated, it was well worth a few thousand to have a brand new car with warranty. No hassles of inspections and wondering what problems are hiding.

But we also looked at some luxury cars in the past where the savings was much more significant between new and used so if you’re looking for say a BMW or Mercedes then my experience probably doesn’t apply. But I do know several friends with those cars who constantly have them in the shop so wouldn’t be surprised if inspections turned up issues. [/quote]
