When shopping for your next vehicle at Burnsville Motors, one of the biggest decisions is whether to buy new or used. There are pros and cons to each option. Here, we'll break down some key considerations to help you decide which route is best for you.
Advantages of Buying New
- That new car smell and feeling of being the first owner
- Ability to get the exact color, options, and features you want
- Manufacturer's bumper-to-bumper warranty coverage
- Latest technology, safety features, and fuel efficiency
Advantages of Buying Used
- Lower upfront cost and typically lower monthly payments
- Vehicle has already taken its biggest depreciation hit
- Lower insurance rates and registration fees
- More vehicle for your money - get a higher trim level or larger model for the same price as a more basic new version
For many buyers, the financial benefits of buying used outweigh the advantages of owning a brand-new vehicle. When you buy used, someone else has absorbed the steepest part of the depreciation curve, so your dollars go further.
