That's a really good deal for a car right now, even a car like the versa that sells new for under 20k. I got hit by a pickup this morning and am likely going to need to buy a new car in a hurry. I would take that deal in a second.
I usually prefer to buy a new econobox vs spending more on a used SUV or whatever. Unfortunately there really aren't many cheap econoboxes left. Even the cheapest cars are only available in higher trim levels, bringing them well over $20k.
Anyone have any cheap new car suggestions?
Mitsubishi Mirage? 2023 starts at 16K. I’m pretty sure that and the Versa are two of of the cheapest new cars you can buy in America these days. Anyone know something I don’t?
No Mitsubishi dealer near me, unfortunately. The mirage was the first car I considered. I don't mind getting a car from somewhere far away, but I'd have nowhere to get warranty service unless I drove 3 hours each time.
I had a Versa as a rental a few years ago, I think it's too basic for me for the new price.
I appreciate your suggestions. I'm going today to check out a Toyota Carolla.
I mean, you can never go wrong with a Corolla. Thing will still be running 100 years from now.
