Is it a good idea to buy a previous rental Car? There is a 2016 camry SE that I was looking. Fits right within my budget and is from a franchise dealer (Honda). But it is a rental car. What is Veeky Forums's take on this

I wouldn't.
Rental cars tend to be thoroughly abused, and frequently get insufficient maintenance.

As someone who has rented several cars in his life, no.
No one treats a rental car nicely. The last one I had was a Chevy Cruze in 2014. I abused it so horribly, flooring it and riding out each gear to redline. I fucking slammed the doors, hit potholes without a care, took corners hard and slammed the brakes. Mainly I was testing its handling (it's quite poor), but also I hate Chevrolet and was still mad about my Mazda being murdered by that inconsiderate bitch on her cellphone.
TL;DR No, rental cars are always abused and poorly maintained. Think about - would you adopt a kid who had been abused before they came to you? Fuck no.

If it's a CPO from toyota, you're good to go. If not, and it's a rental = no

Not for other makes of cars. They want you to buy a Honda first and foremost.

Different warranties.

I worked at dealerships in the past and certified cars are the same as any other used car.
