Is it worth buying a 17 Carrera without certification to save 2500? Especially if I plan on selling it within three years?

Or is it better to get the certification so the vehicle will sell faster and for more money?

what your asking doesn't make sense, the car would still have the remainder of the four year warranty, why not lease if you are going to turn it in in three years

Maybe the CPO makes the car slightly easier to sell when you're done with it, but if I was in your shoes I wouldn't pay extra to benefit the next owner

you'll be covered under factory warranty for the duration of your ownership from what it sounds like.

lease vs buy is another entire discussion that has been debated ad nauseam. I prefer to buy outright unless I have a tax advantage from leasing thru a business - which is a decision between you and your accountant.

i would buy sans CPO in your situation. You can do other things with the $2500 over the next 3 yrs.

I just bought a 2015 CPO. You get 2 years extended on the factory warranty and up to 100k miles. I think it is worth it.
