Reply #8: Anything Toyota or Honda with good gas mileage would be a good bet.. [View All]

Maybe a 4 cylinder Honda, or maybe even a Prius.

If you are doing the auction thing, you have to keep in mind that you cannot drive the car before you bid on it, you can only look at it.

I bought my car from a private owner I found online. I knew it was a good deal because he was a wealthy executive that worked for Nintendo and he had ALL of the maintenance records. He took very good care of it. I would look for something like that if you have the cash to pay for it. That's ideal because you don't have to pay the taxes, and you can work on the price, etc....that's the best way...plus you can drive it.

Internet is the way to go...its really easy to find a car that stands out when you see them all listed in front of you. I've never had a good experience at a dealership.
