I was wondering if I should expect to pay more for a pre-owned certified car vs one that is the exact same but not certified? I am looking at an '09 or '10 Jetta with less than 30,000 miles. Since the car will still be pretty new is it worth focusing on pre-owned certified. The reason I am so interested in a pre-owned certified car is because I am afraid of getting ripped off or missing and overlooking something (even though I am taking notes of how to buy a car from this website). I will be taking the car to a mechanic either way I go. This is my first time buying a car and I have to do it by myself. FYI: this website is great.
Thanks in advances for your advise.

You asked the same type question in your previous post and somehow you don't understand the difference between buying AS IS and CERTIFIED. after study.

I really don't with my 2 finger typing sit here all day trying to make you understand a question where buying certified is more safe - and then again buying non certified for less money could be a better deal,,, I would really have to view your choice of vehicle to make a proper comment,,, and that's why I asked for a link in your first post.

If you want email with a phone # and best time to call,,, and I will walk you through the process to ensure not getting a lemon.
