Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Used and Certified Pre-Owned?

The main difference between certified pre-owned and used is that a certified vehicle has to pass a thorough inspection by highly-trained service technicians, and then reconditioned to like-new quality. A used car takes more of a “purchased as is” approach and won't have the same warranty perks as a certified vehicle, if any.

Is Certified Pre-Owned worth it?

It depends. Take it on a case-by-case basis by evaluating the true cost and savings while you shop. There are scenarios where a certified pre-owned vehicle is only a few thousand dollars less than a new car that makes a new car purchase more sensible. However, for a car with like-new quality that is at least 3 model years old, you could see more significant savings than buying new, which makes CPO a great choice if saving money is important to you.

What doesn’t the BMW CPO warranty cover?

The BMW limited CPO warranty won’t cover scheduled maintenance, general upkeep as a result of regular use or any non-original manufacturer parts. Ultimately, the limited CPO warranty will cover any repairs or replacements as a result of defects in materials or workmanship. Read more about what isn’t covered.

Can you lease a Certified BMW?

It is possible under certain circumstances to lease a certified pre-owned BMW with low enough age and mileage, or if it's offered through a special program - offering leasing terms for a CPO BMW will be up to the dealer.
