Purchase advice
Good Morning All,
We are looking at a 2012 Honda Accord EX-L or a SE model. The EX has 46K miles, 3.5L V6, automatic and all the avialable options. The SE has 7K miles, 2.4L 4cylinder, automatic and fewer options.
What key areas of each vehicle should I pay attention to when inspecting them for leaks, loose items, problems and just general known issues with purchasing a Honda Accord? Both vehicles are from a dealer and both are certificed used vehicles. The EX-L is listed for $21,164 and the SE is listed for $20,552.
Thank you,
Jeff

A Honda Certified Used car comes w/ significant protections against problems. The inspection report should be reviewed and any issues resolved in price. You pay a premium for a "Honda Certified Used" car so you should have negligible issues and warranty to cover any unexpected problems.
good luck
