They cannot bring themselves to fork over the funds for an item that depreciates in value so quickly after pulling away from the dealer's lot. The world of certified used cars arose for these frugal minded individuals. Certified used cars offer sufficient warranty coverage, enough miles on the odometers to assure that they are not lemons and little to none of the instant investment nose dive. Now Lamborghini is joining the ranks of manufacturers offering pre-owned vehicles through its dealership network so wealthy super tight wads can feel a little bit better about splurging for a Lambo. This will also make it easier for those who have to be seen in the latest and greatest to trade up from old to new models.<br /><br />The program begins in July and extends to all Gallardo and Murcielago models through a network of 31 authorized dealers. To be certified, however, the vehicle must meet a list of criteria. The car must have seen less than 22,000 miles with all maintenance fully documented. It also must pass a 150-point inspection performed by the dealer. Any non-OEM equipment (wings, stereos, <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/05/03/gumball-3000-italian-cage-match-ferrari-vs-lamborghini-for-1/">Gumball 3000 decals</a>) will not be accepted as they do not meet the required standards.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/">Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_6_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lp560-4_18_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lp560-4_28_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=127332">Inside Line</a>]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/06/18/certified-used-lamborghini-coming-soon-to-a-dealer-near-you/">Certified used Lamborghinis coming soon to a dealer near you</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Wed, 18 Jun 2008 13:59:00 EST.

According to Stephan Winkelmann, CEO of Lamborghini, the program will be rolled out worldwide, beginning with dealers in the U.S. and Europe. Details about how a used Lambo will be inspected or certified haven't been released yet, but sales will only be allowed through authorized Lamborghini dealers. Ferrari has been dealing in certified pre-owned vehicles since 2003, and just announced a program that would include a 190-point certification process of seven models going all the way back to 1998.<br /><br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/">Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_2_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_6_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lp560-4_18_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lp560-4_28_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/lamborghini-lp560-4-1/low/"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2008/06/lamborghini_lp560_4_new_images_3_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br />[Source: <a href="http://www.brandweek.com/bw/news/recent_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003802207">Brandweek</a>]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/13/lamborghini-working-on-certified-pre-owned-program/">Lamborghini working on certified pre-owned program</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Tue, 13 May 2008 17:04:00 EST.
