Have you seen the meme? You know. The one where the guy is holding his girlfriend’s hand. But another woman walks by and catches his attention. So, imagine this. You’re in the driver’s seat of a new vehicle. But you see another car roll by. It’s a model that is dated a few years older but has upgraded technology and standout features. Not to mention it didn’t cost nearly as much as a new car. And it has your attention. Sometimes, a pre-owned car is just better than a new option. And here are a few reasons why.
Reason #1: Cheaper
How much are you willing to spend for a new car in Westbrook, ME? Most times, new vehicles come with higher prices. You might be in a position to pay more, but do you really want to? Especially when you can get virtually the same technology, safety, and performance features in an older model. And “cheaper” doesn’t mean “less quality.” It means that you’ll spend less for more.
Instead of buying the vehicle with the most up-to-date technology, you can spring for a cheaper version. Our pre-owned models are equipped with base technology available in newly released models. Things like push-button start, large infotainment screens, Wi-Fi connectivity, and a host of driver assistance features are available in many of our pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUVs. And you’ll pay thousands less. So, you tell us what the better option is?
Reason #2: Lower Insurance Premium
Pre-owned vehicles bring lower insurance premiums. This factor depends on the car model and insurance company you choose. But, for the most part, some insurers will charge less for older vehicles. According to Zebra, a company that compares vehicle insurance rates, auto-insurance rates drop by 3.4% for every year your vehicle ages. A brand-new Hyundai could cost $74 more per month to insure than an eight-year-old model.
Cost of parts and equipment play a large role, as well as the other two factors mentioned above. But, with a little research, you can find the company that provides a lower premium for your pre-owned car in South Portland.
Reason #3: More Choices
If you’re shopping for a new car at our dealership, you’ll have one choice: Hyundai. And while this brand is a solid choice for those searching for economical and cost-effective solutions for their commutes, you won’t have many choices. But, if you dance over to our pre-owned inventory, you’ll see many more options.
Our pre-owned lot carries multiple cars, trucks, and SUVs from a variety of automakers. There’s over a dozen vehicles from Dodge, Jeep Brand SUV, Chevy, Ford, Subaru, and Nissan. And even more from luxury automakers like Lincoln, Lexus, INFINITI, and Volkswagen. If you’re looking for power, we’ve got it. Off-road capability, it’s here. Rugged towing strength for your company in Lewiston, ME, say less.
And, here’s the kicker.
You can aim a little higher. That’s right. Since the overall prices are lower, you can shoot for a higher trim level. Leather upholstery, ambient lighting, performance enhancements—you name it. But keep in mind our inventory changes weekly. So, set up your test drive if you see something you like today.
Reason #4: Already Loaded
You don’t have to get anything customized. The only thing you have to do is filter your search. You can find the vehicle that matches your specifications in just a few clicks. Are you looking for a specific drivetrain or interior design? Filter your search. Do you want a certain trim level? Filter your search.
You can adjust eight different filters to find the perfect combination. And if we have it on our lot, you can claim it right there. Call us and set up a test drive. We’ll grab that vehicle and have it waiting for your test drive when you arrive.
