Things to Know When Shopping for Pre-Owned MAZDA Cars

Shopping for a pre-owned Mazda vehicle doesn't have to be a headache as long as you know what to look for. By asking some critical questions and doing your proper research, you can find the right model and a payment plan that fits your budget.

Your Budget

As with buying any car, you should have a budget in mind when shopping for a pre-owned Mazda vehicle. To get an accurate picture of what you can afford, your monthly budget should include not only your monthly payments, but also things like expected service and maintenance payments plus expenses like fuel and oil.

The Model You Want

Finding the right Mazda vehicle can sometimes be an arduous process, especially if you don't know what kind of model you want. You'll want to know what body style you'd like to drive and the features essential to you. With that, our team can narrow your vehicle selection to match your requirements. Whatever model it may be, we always recommend giving it a test drive to see how it handles and pinpoint any potential issues.

The Car's Mileage

When you're checking out models, you'll want to note how many miles each vehicle has clocked. While mileage isn't the only factor to consider, it's a good indicator of how used the car is and how long it's been on the road.

The Vehicle History

It helps to know everything about a model you're interested in, which is where the Mazda Certified Pre-Owned program comes into play. All Mazda Certified Pre-Owned vehicles include an AutoCheck® vehicle history report and have also undergone a 160-inspection by a Mazda technician, so you can be sure you're getting only the best of the best.
