Help me select a car
Yes... a car.
Ok so I usually come on here for all sorts of info and with the tremendous amount of sheer knowledge combined in one place I figure this is probably the best place to ask (also I am not on any car forums)
So I need a new car, but am torn between two different options when narrowing down the search.
First car:
2010 Ford Fusion
$16000 (all fees included)
46,321 Miles
Mo payments at $271/mo for 5 years
Pros: has warranty for next 4 years or up to 100k miles
Is certified pre-owned
Is newer and less miles so it is less worn in
Is well below blue-book value
Cons: cost more than I was wanting to spend
Second Car:
2005 Honda Civic
$10,135 (all fees inc.)
90,130 Miles (has had 100k maintenance)
Mo Payments at $273/mo for 3 years
Benefits: costs less
is a honda so it should last longer
already has 100k maintenance
Cons: No warranty. could get extended warranty but not sure of cost
Both prices include tax, tags, and gap insurance.
Per month cost is based on 10% down on online edmunds car payment calculator
Any advice on either car. I have had a honda accord before, but have not found too much on the fusion.
Thanks,
Thorsen
