Is it a good idea to buy a previous rental Car? There is a 2016 camry SE that I was looking. Fits right within my budget and is from a franchise dealer (Honda). But it is a rental car. What is /o/'s take on this
>>

I wouldn't.
Rental cars tend to be thoroughly abused, and frequently get insufficient maintenance.

As someone who has rented several cars in his life, no.

No one treats a rental car nicely. The last one I had was a Chevy Cruze in 2014. I abused it so horribly, flooring it and riding out each gear to redline. I fucking slammed the doors, hit potholes without a care, took corners hard and slammed the brakes. Mainly I was testing its handling (it's quite poor), but also I hate Chevrolet and was still mad about my Mazda being murdered by that inconsiderate bitch on her cellphone.

TL;DR No, rental cars are always abused and poorly maintained. Think about - would you adopt a kid who had been abused before they came to you? Fuck no.

If it's a CPO from toyota, you're good to go. If not, and it's a rental = no

But wouldn't honda have their own certification.

>>17849919

Not for other makes of cars. They want you to buy a Honda first and foremost.

Different warranties.
>>
>falling for the certified used car scam
I worked at dealerships in the past and certified cars are the same as any other used car.
>>
>>17849937
>except the included warranties
>>
>>17849948
The warranty doesn't last that long.
>>
>>17849959
It depends on which manufacturer you're talking about. Not all of them offer the same warranties. What dealerships did you work for? There are manufacturer certified cars and there are """"""""""""certified""""""""""" cars

>>17849932

>the Corolla S meme

Why does anyone think the S is any better than the regular shitty boring Corolla? They're both slow as fuck and ugly.
>>
>>17849987
It was priced below the usual LE trims and has those fancy shit since it's an S. I agree, I've driven both. LE's (and maybe Ls?) are slow and comfy. S's are slow and stiff.
>"""sport-tuned""" suspensions
>>
>>17849969
I've worked for Honda and Toyota all of the "certified" cars they just "check" the fluids maybe an oil change and put on new cheap tires at most of they're worn out and are detailed and then thrown in the front.
It's a fucking scam basically.

You sound like a bitter shit-hick tech who works for GM.

I'm calling complete bullshit on your story, fuccboi.

y tho?
>>
>>17850007
they literally give you a list of shit they check when you buy a certified car from them and you can literally go to an independent mechanic and confirm that they did and you can sue them for breach of contract if it's found that they didn't do shit.

don't buy a 2016 Camry

you can literally buy a new 2017 Camry for cheaper or barely more money out the door in many markets.

About $3-4 grand more in North Cali

>>17850007
You're making up nonsense. Toyota and Honda CPO inspections are rigorous. The warranty is offered by the manufacturer and not the dealership, if you let something slip through it will come back to you. It's generally up to the tech whether the car is worth being a CPO or not, there's no reason to just push a fucked up car through since the inspection takes more time and you have more liability vs. a car just going on the used lot.

just get a civic for 3k or a v6 accord.

Im in the bay area. None of the dealers around me have a 2017 camry in stock. Only 2018
>>
>>17850167
are you the fag from the other day that wanted to buy a shitbox from a dealer because smog and shit?
>>
>>17850167
oh fuck me, I meant 2016. Don't buy 2017 tho, you'll be buying near-new prices (less 2500 lel) for an "old" vehicle. Either pony up for the 2018 or get a 2016
>>
>>17850197

Do they even have 2017 ?

Same story here with a 2014 Cruze when some dumb bitch with a blowup doll in the back seat drove into me doing an illegal turn.

Redlined every gear and then some. Hell half of the time driving in city I just left it 1st gear manual mode to be obnoxious.

No, the people renting the car to me and the people buying the rental car after are retarded.
>>
There's a reason why rental cars are the fastest cars in the world.
>>
>>17849892
Don't.

For the love of god, don't.

Very few people treat rental cars nicely. Do you really want a car that somebody didn't care about? People who get these cars know they don't have to deal with the repercussions of not treating the cars properly. Don't let somebody else's problem become yours.
