  1. Nobody tells you the cpo warranty is NOT included in the online advertised car price. Only after the dealer takes out the four square and starts trying to add on ceramic coating do they tell you the blue advantage cpo warranty adds 799 to the advertised car price. Why is this disclosed nowhere? Can dealers charge whatever they want?
