"Lexus CPO" - Is cost included in advertised selling price?
Hi,
Recently went to a Lexus dealer to buy a pre-owned certified Lexus. First time buying a Lexus. The salesrep tried to tack on an additional US $1K to the advertised price on this pre-owned Lexus and that turned me off.
When we click on the "Lexus CPO" logo on most of the Lexus dealer websites against cars that are offered as a certified pre-owned, the below text shows up.
"Because every Lexus Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle is thoroughly reconditioned and meticulously inspected, we can comfortably sell them with a Lexus three-year, 100,000 total vehicle mile limited warranty [1]. This, of course, is fully included in the purchase price.
For more information on the benefits of Lexus Certified Pre-Owned click here."
Does this mean that the 3 yr/100K warranty is included in the selling price advertised on the Lexus dealer's web site?
Thanks in advance.

I've always found that a vehicle advertised as CPO, whether Lexus or another luxury brand, included the CPO warranty in the price. However, I have had Cadillac and other domestic dealers quote me a price for a used car that had just come in and say that it would be an extra $1K if I wanted it certified.

When they advertised the vehicle as Lexus Certified Pre-Owned, this includes the 3yr/100k miles warranty and the price they asked for includes this already because in order for the car to be a Lexus Certified Pre-Owned the dealer must perform 161 points inspections, brakes, tires, fluids......must be in good shapes. Now, after all of those are performed and if buyers don't one to pay for $1k to get the 3/100k - are they going to take these out of the car?
If they listed the car as CPO for $xxxxx.xx then add $1k to it if you want the 3/100k miles warranty then you need to talk to the owner of that dealer and Lexus of USA.
If the car is NOT CPO then adding $1k to make if CPO....but they just pay them $1k for CPO, make sure they perform ALL items listed in the CPO standard.
Good luck.
