It would have to be a smokin' deal. Although, I used to work with a guy that would buy old Centuries and Malibus from Enterprise, and he used to brag about how good of luck he had and how he made money on the deal. He was in sales and had to have a car 5 model years old or newer to get reimbursed on the car allowance, so he'd have to dump them at the 5 year mark but they usually had 150-200k on them. He would do oil changes at a quick lube every 10k and nothing else that wasn't absolutely necessary.
