Warranties ... a dealer will offer some kind of limited warranty. Cars sold by private parts are always sold "as is".
The answer all depends on what you want. If you want security and peace of mind, then by all means buy from a dealership. If you want a great deal and aren't afraid of doing a bit of work mechanically, then you should buy at auction.
Advantage versus what?
The price will be higher. They take the blue book price and mark it up. If it was a lease return they will take the residual left on the car and add to it. Either way you will pay more for the car. The one advantage of dealer vs. private party is that if there is a problem with the car you can get it corrected/repaired while a private party is an "as is" deal. Few people will accept a car back if there is a problem, but with a dealer you have a contract that should have a clause concerning returns/repairs.

Based on my personal experience, I believe a person shopping for a car should consider the dealership over the local dealer. The dealership has better resources, choices, and sales, therefore can take a smaller margin of profit. The dealership can offer greater incentives and rebate money. The local dealer may tell untruths and may have to mark up his vehicle prices to stay in business. He cannot offer as many options due to a limited inventory.

You will almost always get more money if you sell the vehicle yourself versus trading it in.
Used corvettes have the advantage of being less expensive on average versus new ones. Over time this savings is further borne out in terms of taxes paid on the vehicle vs. a new one.
