I placed the deposit, plus 600 for a clear bra install. He said he could get me the dme printout, and he said cert is good for 2yr/50k.

 

Car looks nice. Looks like Atlas Grey? If so, you will love the paint.

Let us know how it goes on the purchase and drive home.

 

Dealership said they have the dme printout and there are no problems. What should I look for on this printout?

 

Watch out for stage 4 or above ignitions. I agree with the Atlas Grey- love it.

 

I thought the CPO added two years of additional protection, has that now changed to four?

 

Not necessarily. They probably have the low man on the totem pole type the ad copy. Or just cut and paste from another ad without proofreading it.

Also, Carfax is frequently wrong. I just sold a car that I was the second owner on. Carfax listed it as a one owner car. I put no trust in what they say - no matter their cutesy ad campaign! Certainly, if Carfax reports a problem it deserves further research. However, the failure to report a problem doesn't exclude it. And, just because a problem is listed doesn't mean it actually occurred. Their data is not very sensitive or specific.

 

true...car fax is fairly useless in my book

 

I don't feel that there is anything wrong with a buyer insisting upon accuracy with a car's description or history . If the carfax is false .. then the ad ought to express it .
