Used Cars: buying used cars, buying used cars, moving to florida


Question
Hey danny, im moving to florida next year and im gonna buy a car most likely a used car is there a dollar amount you can tell me that I should range around if I want a fairly good car, nothing to flashy but nice, thanks

Answer
Every car is an investment, You look at how much it cost a year to drive (Maint,Miles,Yr,Depreciation). An example is, if you bought a 2003-2002 Honda for 2500 to 3500, well maintained, it would still bring 2000+ in a couple of years? The newer the year the higher depreciation? I would go to edmunds.com or autotrader.co and search prices within the zip code you are going to live in and look to see what is selling most. I would think that a good median would be 4500-5500. Hope this helps.
