Any difference? Original Warranty vs CPO warranty
Hi All,
I am a newbie here, so please bear with me. I am in process of buying a CPO GLS. The couple of options that I have are: a. 2017 GLS with 43K miles, and b. 2017 GLS with 52K miles. The first one still has about 5 months of original factory warranty, but also is about 5,000 dollars more expensive. The second car has no original warranty left on it. Both cars have generally similar packages / options, apart from minor differences. Irrespective of which car I buy -- I am planning to get extended CPO warranty for 2 more years. (So total 3 years CPO warranty).
My question is -- is there any benefit to buying a car which is still under original warranty? Does the original warranty cover some things that are not covered by CPO warranty. Just in case I find something wrong with the car after I purchase it. Based on solely this info, which car would you suggest?
Any other thoughts? I appreciate all your responses / feedback.
Best Regards!

Nevertheless, the original warranty is a nice feature, so you can give it a shake down for the warranty expires.
What did you end up doing?
