Experts believe that one of the most cost-effective ways to buy a car is to purchase a newer-model-year used vehicle in good condition. And while that may seem like a no-brainer, we know that there's a lot that goes into making a pre-owned purchase in Phoenix, and that you have a lot of factors to consider, including initial cost, long-term value, and everyday performance.
There are thousands of options out there between dealers, private sales, auctions, and family hand-me-downs. But when it comes to buying used, there's one brand that seems to come up again and again when your friends and neighbors make recommendations:
"If you buy used, buy a Honda."
But why is a used or Certified Pre-Owned Honda such a good buy? Aren't all used cars generally created equal, and all that matters is the sticker price?
Not even close.
Honda vehicles consistently score well on crash safety tests, resale and residual value studies, reliability and durability tests, and driver satisfaction surveys, often outscoring the competition. We all know of someone whose Civic, Accord, CR-V, or Pilot is nearing the 200,000-mile mark without issue.
So, what does this mean for shoppers looking for a low-cost car purchase?
Simply, that you can buy a used Honda for thousands of dollars less than buying new, and still reap many of the benefits of driving a new car. Namely, the confidence and peace-of-mind of driving a quality, well-built vehicle. And, with exclusive deals on featured used vehicles at Bell Honda, you can really rake in the savings on a pre-owned car that's actually fun to drive.
