Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 5291244, member: 1559"] My concern with an older used car is maintenance and repair as the costs are hard to quantify. If you do your own repairs or have a really good honest mechanic and the car is not European, you might be OK. It sound like this may be a first car. I would look at leasing for $300/month or less with ~3k to $4k down. Then you have fixed your expenses for 3 years. Cars like Honda HRV or Civic, Subaru Outback or Legacy. [/QUOTE]
