I bought a used car a couple months ago, paid $20 for a experian autocheck report on it and it came back with all the service records and accident history. Took it to a mechanic who ensured the car was in good condition. Since it was private party, i paid less than kbb value for it $22k compared to $28k(dealer price). Thats more than 30% savings. And if car is still under bumper to bumper warranty, you can go get a factory extended warranty for $3k and it will be the same as a certified preowned dealer car.
