In today's modern world, a car is not just a luxury -- it's a necessity. From bringing your children to school and fetching them to hauling cargo for your growing business, you need a reliable vehicle to get the job done. But when it comes to cars, new is not necessarily better.
Technology, design and quality are at the core of the philosophy of Nissan. Used cars or brand new -- whatever type of vehicle you may need, these properties make the car brand highly sought after. The car brand also offers a versatile range of vehicles that can fit the varied needs of consumers, from the Versa Hatchback, Rogue, Pathfinder and Armada for families, to the Xterra and Z Coupe for the weekend warriors, and to the Titan, Frontier and the NV for businesses.
One of the most obvious advantages of buying a used Nissan is the price. Some prospective buyers have this false notion that price is equal to quality. But the truth is, majority of the used cars sold in dealerships, particularly those which were made a few years back, were sold by their owners because they simply wanted to upgrade their car and not because of specific problems or issues with their car. Price is a significant factor in choosing and buying a vehicle, especially for families with a limited budget and for business start-ups with limited capital to go around.
Another benefit of buying a used car is you do not have to trouble yourself with the depreciation of an asset. The purchase of a vehicle, either by a family or a business, is a major investment. The sad truth is that within a year after purchasing a new vehicle, it depreciates in value by as much as 40%. This means a significant reduction in the value of your investment especially if you are eyeing to sell or trade up your new vehicle.
Another advantage of purchasing a used car is the considerably smaller amount of money you have to pay for insurance.
Of course, in purchasing something that is pre-owned, due diligence and prudence is required of the buyer to ensure that the product he or she is eyeing to purchase yields great returns in proportion to the amount invested. One common mistake among first-time used car buyers is focusing on the price. However, price is never a good gauge of quality. That is why it is best to bring someone with expertise in cars to help you inspect a used car so that any problems and issues that may be missed by an untrained eye may be immediately spotted.
