After a lifetime of always buying a new car, we have now been buying CPO.
We drive our cars almost forever. The first Mercedes had 330,000 miles on it when we gave it to the National Kidney Foundation. There was nothing wrong with the car, but we purchased an SL500 at the time. That car now belongs to our son. Bought a CPO SL550 with sticker price of $114,000, 2 years old for $63,000. Beautiful car, great riding and really fast. My wife says to me "we really didn't need that gas" when I downshift. Getting 28 miles/gallon. The E350 along side it gets 600 miles/tank on the highway which means driving all day without stopping for fuel. Prices will respond to consumer demand in my mind.
