Thread 28555092

Shopping for a used car is torture. Anything that seems reasonably priced ends up being a rebuilt title, even if it's at a dealership. I am not asking much--I'm looking at fits and yaris ia. Do I just buy one with 100k miles for $15k or keep refreshing Facebook until a unicorn shows up?

Toyota is overpriced because every Pajeet out there wants a car that "never breaks down". Expand your horizons. You're looking for a brand with too much demand at the cheap used market.

>>28555092 (OP)
Don't focus on only one or two models. Just buy whatever in your area seems reliable and reasonably priced. Use Facebook and Craigslist.

good thing we imported 20 million brown people to compete for resources with during the height of a global manufacturing slowdown combined with hyperinflation due to printing them all a bunch of free money to buy said resources.

5k and a Honda civic

I'd consider Mazdas. You get near Toyota level of reliability at a much lower price point.

The Honda Fit used to be a good deal; but people figured out they were good and now they're all overpriced.

Not for long a lot of places and people are shilling Mazda as the new Toyota so all you people looking for cheap dailys better get them now.

Go buy a buick with a 3800 v6. You can still find them for reasonable prices and mileage, they are untouched by weebniggers/jeets/otherassortedshitskins and are plentiful.

Mazda is hot garbage
I'd go with an older Nissan

You guys get it. Used cars are hardest hit, but we've let in so many people with low standards of living and a scamming attitude that they have totally ruined the lower end of the free market.

Even Facebook marketplace/Craigslist where you used to get cheap used stuff to get you through a pinch ie clothes washer is now arbitraged by someone to flip it for profit

Food banks and commercial promotions - all swamped by browns for free shit with zero goodwill

Soon we won't even have open retail stores due to theft, it'll just be a clerk behind a locked cage

That's how it was before the war. A few places switched back to it during covid and frankly it worked just fine.

At this point a classic car is a good deal. Unfortunately classic prices are tied to regular used prices plus at least a grand thanks to handy people but they're around and will appreciate forever even while adding miles. For best price/performance get an undesirable economy version of a popular hotrodding platform; think 4-door chevelles, fairmonts, regals. Also have 2, same car or not, because old cars will break down it's inevitable

>most dealers rewind back the km counter, they actually have 200k km.
>nobody sells working used cars anymore, everybody is holding until electrics get better/cheaper
>what used cars dealers have in stock is 100% end of life product with issues not worth repairing
>most brands giving up on new cheap cars because of reasons
>2000s cars getting filtered by "low emission zones" and unfair emission tests in the compulsory vehicle inspection
>can't pay over 1k € in cash
You burgers have it easy in comparison

Entry/mid level sports cars (and their respectice luxury sedans/coupes) from 10 years ago cost just as much as a shit econobox from 5-10 years ago.
Just get a sports car like you've always wanted; they're the only things worth the price in today's market.

My subaru outback cost me $3300 aud. It's currently at 314,000km. I just wrench on it and learn to wrench new things.

Go to an auction.
You can likely get a mostly functional car for almost no money that may need $1000 to get up and running smoothly again.

>>28555092 (OP)
>Do I just buy one with 100k miles for $15k
God no. For that kind of money, save up a few grand more and get a brand new Nissan Versa.

lmao

>>28558438
but they come in manual, with a warranty, at 17k

>>28557928
I had thought that the youtuber menace destroyed auction deals, but if you combine OP's advice with >>28557435 or >>28557096 you can get good deals

I saw a clean title Giulia (~2017ish) with no accident history go for like $6,000 recently. Even if it was hiding issues and needed an entire engine replacement that's still cheap (<$2,000 for a replacement motor).
Here's a couple (salvage) that are running for $6k buy-it-now: https://www.salvagereseller.com/cars-for-sale/63831565-2018-alfa-romeo-giulia-ti-q4-walton-ky
