Welcome to the marketing scam that was probably/initially a good move
to offer decent cars, "slightly inspected/low mileage/lease turn ins"...
it has, in the fervor for pushing units and packing profit margins, turned
into a near scam in some cases. Every brand on the planet has "certified"
pre-owned "gems" for sale now. BMW, et al, will tell you it's up to each
independently owned dealer, blah..blah...blah.

When there is lots of wiggle room, in almost any biz situ, many take
advantage of that space, unfortunately, and only imo.
Nice catch by the bye, OP!
GL to all you CPO buyers out there, though for the buyer it remains
a very good safety net, even if that "inspection" was slight or lacking.
