So right place at right time.. I finally got my CW R a couple weeks ago. After being on my dealers list since officially announced a couple years back, passing on 3 that were wrong color and then finally pulling off list and moving on since life circumstances changed... i got the call.

A guy had dropped by my dealership to 'return' a CW 2018 he got from another dealer. Reportedly he got it and decided it was too much car for him and he need a Daily Driver then with Chicago Winter he quickly realized it wasn't usable for him after paying a $2500 markup plus mats and wheel locks.
Of note, we've bought 12 vehicles from our dealer over the years, so there is a lot of trust with them.

It only had 200 miles on it and was mint plus options. Obviously everyone was suspicious so checked it really close. Came through perfect as Certified used car, and as standard with the Cert Used, they gave it a 7 year bumper to bumper, plus I got them to thrown in the Titanium Tire/Wheel plus scratch and dent 5 year for half price. SWEET deal... Was just a few pennies under MSRP, plus the options, 7y warranty plus tire/wheel..
I put 80 more miles on it and now been in garage for 2 weeks since it's snowy and -30. Come on spring! LOL.

Nice! The other owner hadn't even got out of the break in period yet. It should still have the original "break in" oil and that new car smell!

It def has the new car smell. Even the bolsters were perfect. I've bought many new cars with more miles than that..
In this case Certified Used (with 208 miles) is way better since it has the full factory warranty plus the extra pushing it to 7/100k. And I didn't have to buy the two options I was.
