I calculated the premium my local P-dealer wanted was really closer to $8-10K for a certifited car with more mileage and frewer options. I bought a car with three months of factory warranty from a Chevy dealer.
...THEN - I took it to my P-dealer and has them do the 'certified' inspection for, like $175. Passed.
...THEN - I went and bought an external warranty. (noted above)
Given the cars I saw at the P-dealer were really nothing special in condtion or options, I'd sooner - if I felt insecure in my lack of knowledge/resources - have someone like our host find me a car in the colors with options I wanted.
