[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every time we have started looking for a car we have been unable to find a good deal for a used car. Usually they are only a few k less than a new one for a prior year model and +30k miles. We'll just get a good deal on a new car, enjoy the warranty for a couple extra years, and keep the car for 10+ years.[/quote] That has been my experience, too. For low-end, reliable Japanese vehicles, there's just not that much depreciation right off the bat. For corollas, you might be looking at a new one for $17K, or a three-year old one with 36,000 miles for $14K. I'm no longer in the DC area, but last time I went looking for a used car, it took me a couple of months trolling Craigslist pretty seriously to find a used car that actually looked like a better deal than a new one. I found one, but it wasn't trivial.[/quote]
