Potential issues with Corporate Fleet vehicle
Here is a brainer.
Some CPO 2009 328i e90s (I like the LCI refresh) are around but most of them are Corporate Fleet vehicles with about 10k-15k miles on them, price a tad under $30k. I believe these cars are driven by company/dealership employees. Now when they would migrate to 2010s, they put these 2009s to sale. Are these worth the money? They are being driven by many different people and even though they are well maintained there could be reasons to not buy a Corporate Fleet CPO. Any pointers/suggestions/comments? Thanks a bunch!

Majority of the time, these vehicles are only driven by one employee only. They are typically loaded with options and taken care of properly. I work for BMW and I take care off all mine that I get.
What model are u interested in?

These are the best deals you can get on BMW's they are barely broken in but get a big price slash. Also look for corporate vehicles with less than 10K miles. I got one with 7,000 and another one with 3,000 only but $10K less than the price of a new car.

screw that, if you were an employee of a company and they handed you a BMW, wouldn't you tear that sh** up and let it rip every morning on the way to work?
you sure bet you and I would! a salesman at Cerritos Lexus once told me "Yeah, you should buy that ldemo model Lexus IS-F. It's only got 5000 miles and our general manager drove it on the way to work. So it was pretty much babied..." Now i'm thinking..yea right, that general manager must've drove that thing to the ground every morning. |

I dont think that BMW employs people with a high school attitude, even if you want to beat the crap out of the car you eventually get bored or get caught by a cop) A car driven by a retired lady can be more neglected and abused.

Who knows what they do with their cars, but its good to know there is nothing particularly bad about corporate fleet vehicles. Used is used either way, there is always the element of risk. |
