How much should an accident impact the price on a CPO 335i?

Aaronn · 11-09-2010, 11:21 AM

So I'm looking at a 2007 CPO E90 335i. The carfax lists a rear end accident a few years ago, and says to deduct $360 from retail. Is this accurate? Any insight?

Thanks in advance.

I guess they wouldn't have CPOed it if it was a significant accident...

this is kind of like an oxymoron. Could you specify if this car is at a dealership and what year it is? If it did not have a clean carfax they CANNOT certify it. The odds are it was certified while nothing was reported. What is the verbage from carfax?

CPO myth is just a way to get more money out of you, do you really thing tehy actually CPO it and go through 700 point check???

When I was shopping for a car once was offered to remove a CPO for $2000 which means it's just an automatic yes or no.

In Australia, cars with a previous accident history retail about 15-25% lower in the used car market (when the seller is honest)... dunno about a $360 deduction though lol
