Carfax reports can be fudged.

For all of these reasons, I put out the extra dough and bought new. Plus, every year has brought small improvements.

Just my two pennies.


I bought my Z certified pre owned a year and a half ago. It was a 2009 with 15k miles and was in perfect showroom condition. I have driven the hell out of my car and haven't had any major issues after driving it over 30k miles. The only issue I just ran into was the door lock actuator failed recently, but that has nothing to do with the previous owner. Ordered a new one for like $200 and everything should be good after I install it
