And that's why I don't buy new cars. It's like lighting your money on fire.

I bought my current car new, JUST because I wanted to at least go through the process of buying a new car and losing a bunch of money on depreciation once in my life. Every car I get from now on will probably be a couple years used.

I think the best way to go is let someone else eat that and pick it up at a cheaper price 2 or 3 years down the line. |

The wife's Camry was 5 yrs old when we bought it for $10k. It listed at $25k new. No way in hell was it $15,000 better when it was brand new.

I've never bought new. Years back when I was considering a brand new vehicle, a buddy bought a brand new ford escort. It was nice , for a while, then began to have frequent mechanical problems. i bought a beater toyota corolla for $600.00 and it outlasted the escort by two years with no real problems. Not a slap against U.S. autos, I drive a Ford Windstar now. But I decided brand new was not worth it.
