I suggest u check out new/used cars instead of just a new one. In June, I bought a new/used car from CarMax. It was one of those Smart cars,it looked so cute. Anyway, it wasn't that old, it was a 2012 Smart car & it was a fleet car which was really a company car use for renting out. I figure since the company owned it that it would've been taken cared of better than from a lone car owner. Anyway, I recommend CarMax as a legit car company. Good luck on your car search!

Good luck on finding one. Took months for my wife and I to find one.

Shopping for a new car should be fun. Good luck on your new car when you get it.

I bought a new car in February.  Had my old car for 15 years.  I got a Mazda 3 I wanted to test drive the new Honda Civic but the 2016's weren't out and I only had a week to buy a car.  I used something like carsdirect.com or forgot which one exactly.  I think I got a good deal.

If you buy a new car make sure you do your research on sites like Edmunds and  cars.com so you know the lowest amount you can negotiate for a car. Never pay sticker price!

I can't even afford to think about a new car.  My car is 15 years old (I appreciate it) but I wish I could afford a new vehicle.
