alright. So, I want to buy a car. relatively new. around 20,000 $. Now my question is what do you guys think? I've had my fair share of project cars and now i want to just get a car i don't have to worry about. I'm going to collage and expect it to be payed off by the time i graduate. i just want something reliable and something where im not afraid if its gonna start or not.I'm 17 almost 18 and my parents strongly disagree. i want to know how much this would cost me if i did take out a car loan on it. average of what people lpay for a 20000 dollar car

well you could get something for that price just depends on what kind of car your after a good mileage vehicle one that isn't gonna cause to many issues you have to plan for insurance on the vehicle if your gonna do payments or how its gonna work drivers license used but newer mabe 2004 0r anything fowarding that fits in the category theres alot of them just depends on what you want i would check car lots or dealer ship you can get a good car for just offering a price that works for you
You would be better off buying a car for $5000 and paying a mechanic you trust to go over it and make sure it is going to last and be trustworthy over the intended college life of the car. Don't go for just looks of the car make sure it's a European car as they last longer, are more reliable and cheaper to run (I get over 70 miles to the gallon in my VW).
Get it checked out every six months to make sure there are no major issues and have them repaired (do make sure you can trust the mechanic).
New cars go wrong too.
Choose the car and get it to the mechanic before buying or buy a car with Back Guarantee and you won't be affraid about start of your car. Also choose the dealership that can help you with your questions and will be good for you. I bought my car at asankacars.com and very happy with it. Average payment for $20000 for 4 years is $450
