Which car purchase is the smarter choice moving forward? Prius, Fusion, Malibu?
3 options:
2004 Chevy Malibu, 130k miles for $2400
2007 Ford Fusion, 115k miles for $3900
2009 Toyota Prius, 68k miles for $6800
All three cars are in good condition. Clearly the Prius is the better car, then fusion, then malibu, but I'm looking for the best choice for the money.
My budget is small, don't want to spend more than $5000 (but if its worth it then ill spend more).
Which car should I get and why? I can always turn around and sell the prius for $4000 in three years. But money is a concern right now.
Go with the Prius. I have an 08 and love it. Just change the oil, and keep driving.
The 2004 Malibu was the poster child for GM's Electric Power Steering problems; some owners replaced the steering column more than once a year. That is a very attractive price for the Prius, but since money is tight I would go with the 2007 Fusion. That was a good year for the Fusion - just be sure to have your mechanic check it out before you buy.
Pay cash for a good used car of your liking.
- Which would be a better choice for a sports car: a Mustang GT or a Corvette c6? The mustang gt is 2005-2008ish, and the corvette c6 is 2005-2007ish. I'm leaning to the corvette since they're worth more money and I always have been a fan of corvettes, but then the mustang can fit 4 people while the vette only seats two. Which would be the better choice?
- When see Lexus.does this translate as I'm better than you.cause I'm so smarter than you? I mean "Chevy" to me says." I'm dumb and proud to be an American"? What about Ford? WHAT ABOUT JUST "TOYOTA"? (I'm SMARTER THAN ALL OF YOU!"? BUT HOW TRUE?)
- What is the best used car to purchase, Camry, Corolla, or Fusion? Around 2015-2017? Looking for a newer used car, and I just can't decide. I keep hearing Fords suck, but then again they're rated high in the magazines. And Toyota's are great, but how can I decide between a Camry or a Corolla? It. Just me, no family, but I like storage space, I know the corolla is smaller, but it's bigger than my older camry!
- 2015 Ford Fusion vs Chevy Malibu? I been researching on both and can say that the ford fusion has a better interior than the Malibu but I know very little about cars. Therefore I asked advise from family and they have said that the Ford Fusion has a lot of defects and problems. Anyone had either of the two and can give an honest opinion on them?
