For the second owner, who is looking for a deal, its great news.
Every year theres a flood of cars that land on the secondary market from years before.
Whenyou shopand what you look at have massive effects on the effectiveness of your purchase power.
When the snow flies, its time to think about upgrading your horseless carriage.
Buy 3-Year-Old Cars
A lease on a new car typically runs 3 years.
Dealers get flooded with leased cars that they now need to move.
The real appeal of the Maxima aside from the paltry price is the V6 that can really purr.
The E-Class is your big, bold model.
If smaller size and better gas mileage is your goal, the Compact C-Class will serve you better.
They are also more commonly leased than bought, since image is a major selling point.
It was a Focus that turned me around, somewhat.
As a brand, Ford has a lot of holes, but is rapidly getting more hits than misses.
The Focus is a quaint, reliable, durable, lovable small sedan.
It started out decent and has climbed into rarefied air.
Buyers who are considering a Toyota or Honda sedan should give the Focus a try.
Youll need to make peace with the obviously cheap interior.
Easily done when its still going strong years, and many miles, down the line.
Infiniti Q50
BMW and Mercedes are kicking Infinitis ass.
Bad news for them, but good news for luxury buyers hoping to snag a steal.
What the Q50 has that the 3-Series lacks is a sense of streamlined refinement, and true luxury.
The 3-Series feels cluttered and can bear too many engine options for someone who isnt shopping new.
Conversely, the Q50 is natural, intuitive, and just as much fun to take onsome dangerous curves.
