A CPO (cerftified pre-owned) car that has the following:

Manual transmission  
RWD OR AWD  
Must be a car. NO SUV’S or trucks  
Sub $20K mark  
The CPO program must have low finance rates, under 3.9%

BMW’s program is pretty good 100Kmile warrenty and 2.9% financing.  
Show me some other cars/deals

They have a few around and under 20K but nothing under 19.  
Honda isn’t offering shit right now…  
and um… GM…well, they just don’t make any car worth while

bmw is only for 36 months if i recall correctly.

honda has 2.9 for 60 months on new vehicles. i’m going to ray laks tomorrow to see if i can get a brand new si for close to the same payment i have now, as i got screwed with an over 8% rate last year when i bought it.

and let’s not lie, we know the car is for you. it’s been three months, right?

Awesome warranty. low financing…usually 5% lower than banks  
I don’t know of any cons? Maybe $1,000 added to the sticker?

yeah that 2.9 is on all civics sans the ng model.

iirc, it’s also on accord (not coupe), ridgeline, pilot, and sk2 also. unfortunately a brand new sk2 is a little out of my budget right now though.

Well that rwd thing is definitely going to be the most difficult aspect of your search to fulfill if you must go CPO so, I would say that is a big con in itself. I looked up some Saturn Sky’s and they’re all above the 20k mark. I say you just find a very reliable car that you need not worry about a warranty for and say screw the CPO part.

Ya the thing is, is the person who is looking has a new car, and would rather trade it in rather than find someone who will drop 23grand on it.

Your price range? I thought you were looking for a friend 😉  
Your family owns autohaus! I’m sure you can get a CPO .:R32 thru them…
