if they are just like buying a new car why are they so heavily discounted?
how come you can have your warranty voided by them logging the ecu and recalling excessive rev limiter events? you'd be pretty fuckign niave to think there was zero element of risk associated with buying a demo model & that its been treated/babied as a new car would be by a person who's shelled out their own hard earned for it i'm not saying every sales rep will treat them like this, but come on |

99% of dealers can't even tell if you've had the stock ECU tuned. I don't know of any Subaru/Mitsubishi that stores rev limiter events either. Certain cars like R35 GTR's do store more information, but that would be the minority. The way I look at it is everyone would be happy to buy a 2nd hand car, but the word 'demo' scares them. In the performance car game, does anyone honestly think one would be driven less hard than the other? Just like all 2nd hand cars, get it inspected if you are unsure.

I always try and buy new, would rather be the one stuffing it up than possibly inheriting somebody elses handiwork....
And the Subaru dealer said "drive it however the f**k you want mate, she's ready to go". Good enough for me!

Would love to hear from a dealership about how they came to this conclusion.
I do know in RAM certain values are kept.. but nothing about how many times limiter was reached. |

To be fair, they may have had a Phil clause....
