This is why people should buy used cars either CPO or from another board member here who bought it new.

When it comes to the quality of a used car this is the ranking:
1) Private seller from this board who is a true enthusiast who hasn't performance modded the car

2) CPO car
>
3) Third party dealer who got the car in an auction (these are usually the worst cars because good cars are always sold privately or end up as CPOs).

I'd disagree with one. I know plenty of people who mod their cars and take even more delicate care of warm up procedures, changing fluids and belts, etc. where as I've seen "stock" low mile cars with 5-10+ years of neglect in the fluid/ warm up procedure department.
My point is I don't trust mods. Why buy a car which has more power train wear than one which has less.
