Why Choose a Used Cadillac?
Buying a used Cadillac comes with many benefits. A lower purchase price is obviously an attractive bonus when purchasing a preowned vehicle, and Cadillacs are no different. You can often get optional features and upgrades in a used Cadillac that are out of your budget with a new model. This might include higher-quality materials, additional safety features, and a more powerful engine. A higher trim level could better fit your budget if you go with a preowned Cadillac, and you'll also get a better selection because you can choose from a range of year models.
Certified Preowned vs. Used — What's Best for You?
Consider your budget and driving needs to help you decide whether a preowned or certified preowned (CPO) Cadillac is best for you. Our CPO inventory undergoes a more rigorous inspection process than our preowned inventory. Our used Cadillac models have to meet strict criteria before we give them the CPO label. They must have fewer than 50,000 miles and no more than one owner to ensure the highest quality. Of course, a CPO Cadillac will come at a higher price.
What To Look For in a Used Cadillac
When shopping for a used Cadillac, there are some key things to look for before you buy your dream vehicle.
Mileage, Year, and Vehicle History Report
The mileage on a Cadillac's odometer tells you how many miles the previous owner or owners drove. While low mileage is typically better, as it means the engine should still have plenty of life, this isn't always the case. A car engine should be used regularly, and if a preowned Cadillac has low miles, it could have problems caused by a lack of use.
Knowing the model year can help you get a Cadillac that isn't prone to any issues and has plenty of life span left. Get a vehicle history report that shares insights about past ownership and accident information. These details can help you make an informed decision before you choose a used Cadillac.
Exterior and Interior Inspection Tips
Inspecting the exterior and interior of a used vehicle takes some effort, but it's a vital part of finding the best used Cadillac for you. Use these exterior and interior inspection tips when shopping for a used Cadillac in our extensive inventory:
- Look at the vehicle from different angles, walking around the entire perimeter. Get down so you're at eye level with the car to look down its lines and curves.
- Run your hand along the vehicle's surface to feel for imperfections, scratches, or chips in the paint.
- Open every door, the trunk or hatch, and interior compartments, ensuring everything functions as it should.
- Look over the seats and upholstery, checking for tears, rips, and stains. You can also inspect the carpet and floor mats to assess their condition.
- Inspect the dashboard and steering wheel for cracks and other signs of wear. Check the interior trim, mirrors, and ceiling to ensure the cabin meets your standards.
Mechanical Inspection and Test-Drive Recommendations
Discover how a used Cadillac runs by taking your preferred model for a test-drive. First, look under the hood to ensure the engine compartment is clean while keeping an eye out for signs of oil or other fluid leaks, and make sure everything appears as it should. While you're driving, test the vehicle's mechanical components. This includes turning the vehicle, stepping on the brakes, and moving the car in reverse. You'll want to feel how the transmission moves through the gears as you get the vehicle up to speed, so try taking it on the interstate for a short time.
