What qualifies a BMW to become a Certified Pre-Owned BMW?

Only the best pre-owned BMWs qualify for the Certified Pre-Owned BMW Vehicle Program. To be eligible for enrollment in the Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Program, a late-model vehicle must be in service for at least six months or have more than 6,000 miles but less than 60,000 miles on the odometer. They must pass an extensive examination - a thorough and rigorous inspection by BMW factory-trained technicians. They inspect the vehicle for safety, performance and wear. If something is not right, it is fixed. If it cannot be fixed, the car cannot become a Certified Pre-Owned BMW.

In short, we're picky. But when you see everything covered under our Protection Plan, you'll understand why. Ask to see the Certified Pre-Owned Inspection Checklist. It is your assurance of the quality, reliability and overall pleasure BMW owners have come to expect.

The Certified Pre-Owned BMW Warranty protects you against defects in materials or workmanship for a wide range of vehicle components. The Warranty is administered by BMW of North America, LLC, ensuring that covered repairs are performed by BMW-trained technicians using only genuine BMW replacement parts. And, since this is a BMW-backed program, you won't have to wait for a third-party adjuster to decide whether your repair is covered, Your BMW center can make the determination right on the spot. Although the Certified Pre-Owned BMW Limited Warranty is extremely comprehensive, it is not an extension of the original 4-year/50,000 mile New BMW Vehicle Limited Warranty. The Certified Pre-Owned BMW Limited Warranty takes over when the BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty expires, and the coverage it provides is somewhat different from the new car warranty.

Warranty
With the BMW Certified Pre-Owned Warranty, you're covered for up to 6 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.

BMW Financial Centers
A BMW with a few miles on it may be your best value, not to mention the best vehicle you've ever driven. And BMW Financial Services can help make a Certified Pre-Owned BMW even more enjoyable to drive and own. Because we support Pre-Owned BMWs with the same competitive programs, excellent customer service and flexibility as our new vehicles.

Traditional Financing
You can finance a Certified Pre-Owned BMW for a term of up to 60 months with no down payment required (subject to credit approval). When you finance the purchase of your Pre-Owned BMW, your name goes on the title. And when your loan period ends, you become the outright owner. Also, when you finance through BMW Financial Services, you have the same two payment options (Advance Payments and EasyPay) to make your financing easier.

The Ultimate Lease
Leasing a Certified Pre-Owned BMW is the same as leasing a new one. All leasing options -- Multiple Security Deposits, PrePay, EasyPay, and Gap Protection -- also apply to leasing Certified Pre-Owned BMWs. The only exception is that lease terms for non-current model year Certified Pre-Owned BMWs are limited to 48 months instead of 60 months.
