One of the best car buying tips for anyone is to check into certified used cars. Here is an example of a General Motors certified used car, it may differ from other manufacturers. A General Motors certified used car gets a strict 110 point inspection at the dealership from the tip of the exhaust to the cup holders and if there is the smallest of problems, it does not get certified until fixed. A certified used car has less than 60,000 miles and no more than 5 years old. A certified used car with GM receives an extra 3 month or 3000 mile warranty. If the car is under warranty when you purchase it, the certified warranty is added to the end. So instead of having a 36 month, 36000 mile warranty, the certified car has a 39 month, 39000 mile warranty. A certified GM car also receives roadside assistance just like a new car under warranty.

A little known fact about certified used cars is that you have 3 days or 3000 miles to determine if the car is right for you. If in this time period you decide you do not like the car, take it back to the dealership and find one you like better. A certified used car also has a sticker on the window telling that it passed the strict guidelines to become certified used, along with the market price clearly visible to avoid confusion. When you buy a certified used car you are in a better situation to trade more often and avoid hearing those dreaded words "upside down" by the dealer, which means you owe more than the car is worth. Before you buy a new car, check into your options on certified used, it might be exactly what you are looking for and not break the bank.
