Why Used Luxury Cars Make Sense

Mercedes S-Class

Are you interested in buying an exotic or luxury car? Most of us have dreamed about driving a majestic Bentley or fiery hot Lamborghini at some point in our lives. Not only do these cars epitomize the “luxe life”; they also stand out for their impeccable styling, world-class engines with jaw dropping horsepower and unrivaled performance. Realistically speaking, the majority of us probably won’t able to afford a six figure car in our lifetimes even though we may lust for them. So what’s the next best thing? A certified used luxury car.

Certified used luxury cars are generally a few years older and have passed a rigorous inspection process. Automotive brands who offer certified pre-owned luxury cars include Mercedes Benz, BMW, Infiniti and Cadillac. The Mercedes Benz certified pre-owned program only accepts cars that have less than 75,000 miles registered on the odometer. In addition, all vehicles come with a comprehensive limited warranty for added piece of mind. Mercedes Benz also offers buyers lifetime 24-hour roadside.

One of the main advantages of buying a pre-owned vehicle is the fact that you don’t get hit with depreciation costs since a brand new car generally depreciates in value the minute you drive it off the lot. Buying a used luxury auto is simply a way of enjoying the finer things in life without a major financial sacrifice. The average person can’t tell the difference between a 2011 or 2012 Mercedes S-Class and as long you don’t tell, no one will ever have to know.

Let’s take a look at the benefits of driving a more upscale used car. They are generally designed by top engineers and infinitely more stylish than economy cars. They are also a lot more impressive when it comes to impressing your business associate, client, friend back from high school or date. It’s fair enough to assume that appearances and first impressions are important.

If that isn’t enough to convince you, luxury cars are generally ahead of the curve when it comes to safety. Mercedes Benz was the first company to utilize the seatbelt in its S-Class before any other company. Mercedes is also well known for its crumple zone which was designed to absorb kinetic energy during a high impact accident and offering superior protection to passengers.

So keep certified pre-owned autos in mind the next time you go car shopping.You don't need to spend an excessive amount of money in order to enjoy the finer things in life; you just have to shop smarter.
