What’s the Big Deal About Buying New? 

There’s just something exciting about picking up a brand-new ride with zero miles on the odometer. Buying new means driving off in a vehicle that no one else has owned. Everything from the tires to the touchscreen is untouched.  

New cars come loaded with the latest tech—wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Autoâ„¢, enhanced safety systems like Honda Sensing®, and high-efficiency engines. Maintenance is minimal in the first few years. And warranties? They’ve got drivers covered with manufacturer support right out of the gate.  

But yes, there’s that bigger price tag. And, just like a phone loses value when it’s unboxed, cars start depreciating the second they hit the road.

What Makes Used Cars a Smart Pick? 

Pre-owned vehicles bring some serious savings to the table. Drivers get more car for less cash—and often still enjoy modern features like touchscreen displays, driver-assist tools, and quality interiors.  

At Flagship Honda, used cars go through careful inspections before they land on the lot. That means peace of mind while keeping the wallet happy. Bonus: Insurance costs are usually lower, and depreciation hits less hard.  

Of course, there’s always the question of history—how it was driven, maintained, or repaired. That’s why choosing a trustworthy dealership makes all the difference.
