Certified Pre Owned Camry or Civic with moderate-high miles (for its age, which is likely gonna be 2-3 years old) from a dealership IMO. You have the multi point inspection and guarantees from the dealership, a portion of the initial warranty remaining, and likely they throw in a sort of "maintenance package" to boot.

Used car prices are so inflated these days that you might as well just buy new

I was all ready to chit all over the mitsubishi mirage, but after looking it up I guess it's not the worst deal ever if all you care about is getting from a to b in a chit box. They have a 10 year/100k mile powertrain warranty which is double what most brands give you

He's always complaining and asking for advice but never takes it. He wanted us to validate his choice to buy a 10+year old Lincoln MK-whatever SUV with 300k miles on it. I'm assuming he went through with that choice and found out it wasn't the best idea.

It’s like 19-20k out the door but should I finance or pay cash or pay like 10k down payment

Also, it being cvt is that bad in anyways

From what I’ve read the mirage is actually relatively reliable in that they are as basic as possible so less chit to fukk up.
I’d personally lean Toyota however would buy a mitsu over a Hyundai/kia.

Yeah I was suprised that people are saying they're actually decently reliable. Seems like a good value for people who just want an appliance

You're not getting anything reliable for $10K; that's less than the cost of the average new engine




Lol @ thinking buying new is cheaper than buying used and maintaining it; are you retarded
Dont listen to this idiot. Buying a used corolla/camry/civic is a great idea. Look for one with service records.

You can buy a low mile, low being 100k, civic for 7 grand. Will run until your grandkids need a car. And if it doesnt, a new engine is $600

2 of my friends are selling their cars

2017 Hyundai Sonata 175k miles $5k

Friend says he put Transmission is new, wheels are new, rotors and brakes are new

2018 Toyota Camry le 9k miles $20k

One accident friend purchased it as a cpo car 2 years ago but has basically been sitting not driving

What should I offer these guys

Thoughts on what’s a better deal? Just waiting till winter when prices go down

Other options are new or used Corollas

Or new Mitsubishi Mirage
