I'm a dealer so I see the wholesale prices day by day. All those prices are salvage title or down payments. They all sell for more than listed here at dealer auctions. Trust me, I'm there watching them roll by.
Yeah, like just because they found one for a low price they say you can buy one for that price. Not true and even more untrue the higher they go in price.
This is true we’re not getting any of these cars for under 6-7K Wholesale rn this video should be best cars under 10K.
I am currently looking for a car of this sort and everything under 5k is simply salvage junk.some thing reasonable is 8-10k
LMAO y'all just don't know where to look... Been helping friends and family buy used car for the past couple years and the most recent one was 2 months ago. Bought some of the car on this list for under 5k and run like new. No issue on any of the cars that was bought.
found every single one of these under 5k on marketplace, not that hard if you look for like 5 mins
Where I live even the civics and corollas over 300K miles go for nearly 8 grand sadly. Also be careful what civic you pick, maybe I was just unlucky but I managed to blow 2 d17a1 engines in a 2003 civic lx in just under two years, even with proper maintenance.
I have a 2007 Accord V6 fully loaded and it’s fun to drive and I drove it from Maryland to New York with no issues and on one tank I highly recommend buying one
Does it have a Hemi?
I wish i never sold my 05 V6 it was awesome
Finally someone is giving the Avalon the love it deserves
Gen1 & Gen2 Honda Fit. 4 doors 5spd manual. 40+mpg. Vtec. Hatchback. Equal to a CRX but under $5K and not rotted out.
If its not on the list then the list ain't legit...
I’m just not willing to drive manual lol I hate driving for the most part adding more sounds like a pain.
My first car. Surprisingly, very quick and agile with insane handling. Also great offroad, went up past places the F350 & Hilux got stuck.
@@2JZLS wow!... Was it due to tires that the fit pulled off this feat?
My dad's first Avalon went 330k miles without costing him anything more than basic maintenance. His current Avalon is pushing 400k miles and still hasn't cost him much at all to own. It's not fun to drive, at all, but if you want miles for cheap, I'd recommend it highly.
What year was it? Mine is a 1997 xls with every option you could get back in 1997 I even have the 12 disc cd changer
@@keseanwoods-gr1dg His first was a 97 XLS as well! His current one is an 04.
My parents had two Avalons. First one went 327k before selling it (nothing but regular maintenance). Second one went 297k before air went out and my dad sold it. Most reliable car ever made and it’s not statistically arguable.
Scotty would love this list until you put the Xterra, Elantra and focus 😂
Miata is always… but I don’t think you can find decent Miata with less than 150k miles for $5k anymore (maybe auto).
I love my 2003 accord v6 coupe they're amazing
I have a 2007 Toyota Avalon, gave it to my mom, one of the best cars I've ever had (made in Japan, $9000 bucks used), soft ride, 260HP V6 that gets 30mpg high way, Timing Chain, ROOMIEST CAR I've been in. Paint Quality is TOP NOTCH, 10x better than Honda Civic Paint, It's like Candy Coated like an M&M paint, it's nice....It survived me driving it 200 miles home on a blown radiator on H (my fault I should have had it towed), radiator fixed, runs like a champ still to this day and my mom drives it and her dogs around.
I don't know why it's rarely included, but what about the early 2000s model of the panther car. IE Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis/Marauder, Lincoln Town Car? All were great cars with essentially mustang engines and actually get decent fuel mileage. Thanks for the video though!
Those bars in the outro tho 🔥😂
PLEASE stop recycling these same list videos. Get some new fresh ideas or better yet I would rather see ONE really well thought-out video once a week, every two weeks or even once a month rather than a recycled list video every day. Quality OVER quantity.
Yea fr
Rs
Id like that too but I believe it is just to follow with videos that already did good in terms of views and things of that nature
@@chasezoots1411it’s not the video idea but it’s the car he chooses you should do car prices based by the states because in Milwaukee srts avg 30k but I see them elsewhere for cheaper private sell ofc
How bout you unsub and ignore?
0:54 2003-2008 is actually more reliable. But if you must go for this generation, I'd suggest 2011 or newer. Quality went up over 2009 and 2010, and the few issues they had (mainly water pump failures) were resolved.
Not putting the crown Victoria is insane to me
I have the 2010 Avalon and I love it !✅❤️
Personally one of the most reliable cars in the automotive history is the Volvo Brand which runs in the sixties over 5 Million Miles ahead of all the car brands.
Can you guys do a :most reliable Truck or SUV for camping?
Great car 🚗
Targeting a car by generations or years is helpful. I try to get the latest version in the group to get improvements made by the mfr.
Im shocked to see the Nissan XTerra on the list!!!
I have an NB Miata but I cant or at least dont want to drive it in the winter. I want to keep its resell value to sell next year sadly
Everyone talks bad about the MK7 fiesta but tbh I've got one and it's a good bit of fun and I'm averaging high 30's to the gallon even though I'm riding at 80mph most times
Avalon in any year is unbeatable
1st Gen Scion xB should’ve been top 3 on that list
💯 solid as a rock.
Always forgetting the mid engine Corolla from 2000-2005, they have gotten more expensive in the last few years but a good manual that needs minor paint or seat covering can be had for under 5k, they run as long as the Corolla since the use the same engine and trans but they handle like a excelling everyday car enthusiasts' dream Lambo or Ferrari...don't buy the smt version as the automated manual was production forced to keep up with BMW smg and paddle shit/slap shift options becoming options on most upscale cars in the y2k era....before the r and d proved longevity THE FORGOTTEN zzw30 MR2 Spyder is a gem of a choice for anyone looking to feel exotic driving feel for barley more than Corolla type cash
I agree, cause I have one, but you forgot to mention the catalytic converter. Lol
Not sure where your source for pricing comes from, but any or all of these vehicles are twice as high out in Colorado with the one exception of 300K mile vehicles of which nobody wants .
Same in Cali
Miata is always the answer
But don't corollas burn oil in that year range?
Pontiac Vibe/Matrix, basically a Corolla with a hatch and more stout suspension. Honda Element also will go forever. Avalon is a great choice too.
I’m probably gonna end up getting a rav 4 or a crv.
If you live in any sizeable metro area,then these prices are completely unavailable. I had to go out way country to find a cheap Corolla,and it's rusted and beat up🙁but runs great😊but $5000 in the city? No way!
I Got My 2009 Infiniti G37x For 5200 , Super Reliable And Super Fun To Drive
Nissans are _definitely_ not known for reliability, and upping the cost of ownership with that silly Infiniti badge is an even bigger mistake
Good luck.
@@matthewkuhl79every car is different and I know someone who has had their g35 for 3 years now 3rd owner and 260k runs awesomely
Sorry - disagree with you on the Honda Civic - mine started burning oil at 80K, a know problem with every year Civic. Also the windshield wipers are stuck in an odd position (Honda knows about this, but won't fix it , they want $300). The driver's seat belt is another issue - it easily gets stuck and mine has gotten stuck where I can't open the driver's door. Again this is a known issue. The Civic is small and cramped. If you are over 6 foot good luck. My friend owns a Corolla - it's not as sporty, but way more leg room and easier to get in and out of. His just turned 300K, without issues, and his wife's Toyota Camry has almost 400K. I know Honda has a good reputation, but my next car will be a Toyota. By the way I've owned Honda's since 1977. I think their quality has gone down hill.
Toyota and Honda best new car make a great used car
No panther platforms?
Everyone I've ever asked says Ford focus is risky
Acura CL 2.2 and 2.3 is another reliable car not fast but gives nice sporty look years 1997-2000 if you wanna do the 3.0 be my guess
The mark one focus I'm sorry, should have been on the list and not just an honorable mention the first genfocus. Like you said in the video their dirt cheap they're reliable. They're fun to drive and if you get one with a manual. And you can actually improve as a driver because that car will basically not hinder you. Hell, if you want to drift the cock sucker go ahead, just huck it into a turn going a little to fast The rear ends gonna step out. Not to mention the cars are extremely easy to work on and you can get the SVT or the 05 to 07 gen. You can get the ST which is just as fast as the. SVT But if that's still Not cutting it. The 2.5 out of the ford fusion 175 horsepower from factory can make 200 wheel with bolt on's and is a straight bolt in swap into the ford focus
Surprised that those olive-green Chevy Vegas with the brown, faux-wood panels didn't make the list. 🤔
By the way, for those who don't know: It was one of GM's first aluminum-block engines... so the joke back in the '70s while pulling up to the gas attendant was "Fill'er up the oil and coolant, and check the gas, please."
03 ish 5.3l Tahoe will eat up 06 stock civic unless it is si 😅.
So yes get accord ex v6 enjoy staying ahead of 4x4 dad vans so u can see ahead 😅 drive safe
Saab 900 turbo 3 door is damm reliable
I find it funny how none of these videos mention the crown victoria
How about toyota prius?
Rav or miata ?
Scotty Kilmer has left the room. An 010 Corolla with 200+ K on the odo still sells for 10K in Canada, instead get the Yaris or 2 gen Prius, Used Civics are a hit or miss, I'd go for a Honda FIT. Nice Accords are also big money, especially the low mileage ones. Also be careful with used Camrys! Many we used as taxi cab / ride share, like Uber. Instead get a high mileage Matrix that's not rusted out. If you are a mechanic, get a BMW 3 series with a 6 cyl engine, The older ones re actually reliable. Stay away from older VW especially the made in Mexico models. Elantras can be fun and practical with the manual tranny. An Older CRV is viable, 2004, 05, 06, if you can find one that's not rusted to pieces. Avalons are nice and comfy + super reliable, but can be heavy on gas in city driving. Mazda 3 between 2010 and 2013 are avail for under 5k, Fun and reliable cars, plus comes in a hatchback, which is also practical.
Acura RSX 1st & 2nd Gen
3:48-3:52!!!!😂😂😂 😂😂
Thanks for that lmao so very much 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah under or around $5,000 with how many miles? That's the question.
Nissan VG33 engine.. REALLY? Not only that it gets horrible fuel mileage, but it couldn't get out of a wet paper bag. Random misfires and that's most likely the fuel injector nozzles. Just changing the spark plugs suck. The one in the back of the engine. Distributor has a 100% failure rate.
Which is the ideal one?
MIATA 😂
I gotta 2008 suzuki grand vitara for 7 grand. Look for Suzukis if you never wanna buy another car again😂
You've got to get the 8th Gen Civic. I regret not getting the Sedan though because it has more aftermarket support than the Coupe.
Honda civic all day
get like literally any skoda from europe if you looking for gas mileage
Everyone knows Toyota, Honda, but enough already, not everyone wants a boring Corolla. Why don't you guys actually do a road test for a car people want to drive? As an example, IM talks about Lexus and BMW ad nauseum, so how about test driving 4 generations of the IS or 3? Or would that actually require work?
Under 5k before the video 🥴
oh noo...not miata as #1 🙄
0:00 it's a Toyota...
2004-2008 Acura TL baby. Best car you can get with that money 100%!!!!
In a manual
Not everyone wants to race their first car. PLEASE stop giving info on its racing capabilities.
Japanese reliability 👌
You missed German 😂
these list are getting kinda boring........I need new entries in next videos... at least 3 to 4 that have not been mentioned before.....
The Honda's and Toyota's mentioned sell for more than double the price mentioned here. The ford and Hyundai are garbage at any price. I suggest a pre 2008 buick lesabre. No one wants a grampa car so they are dirt cheap, the 3.8 engine will last 300,000 miles and gets solid fuel economy
Toyota 4 Runner is twice as good as Nissan XTERRA
When you mentioned Hyundai ! stopped the video
Focus as a reliable car tf?
Cmon, more recycled content?
Civic auto trans is trash after 2000, avalon transmission loves to go out at 200k, hyundia is garbage, no real mechanic would ever suggest it.
you having a laugh, civic in small section. you start micro city car 2 two seat smart car, or toyota iQ as examples, small cars so fiesta, i20, clio, 208, med cars then civic , renault megane, focus. then large cars so mazda 6, mondeo, renault laguna, honda accord. huge cars ford Galaxy, Renault espace, landcruiser, rangerover, f150. lets not forget even in my life time the fiesta is as big as med car not so long ago. no idea why so many want big heavy car, more maintenance costs brakes tires and suspension even running costs and you no faster, light weight adds fun and much better and fun in the corners, you prob have extra section after huge cars supper size.
Uhh... The US doesn't get any of that shit 😂
😬.
Let me guess corolla or civic will be on your list. Can guess without watching this wasting time video
Here we go again more recycled content
Any vehicle me is reliable when you put electrical tape over the CEL 😂
Refer Hyundai santro xing
The miata’s engine is actually kind of shit.
Made for a ff application so the coolant runs the wrong way
First
2nd
Another recycled video
