The best buys but limited selection I have found. Most city, county and state retirement
magazines have a for sale section. Most often the cars of the elderly are low mileage, unabused, fairly maintained and reasonably priced. You won't find a Supra or GTI.
I bought my Dakota @ 800$ under wholesale at the time. Worth a look..........:sun:

Open your classifieds. Try to stay away from mini-dealerships that specialize in just used cars. Try new car dealerships that usually sell their own trade-ins. ;)

If you want the Corolla, looks at the Chevy Prism - they're both the EXACT SAME CARS (except the Prizm has Chevy badges), but the Prizm will usually be cheaper.

To not get ripped off, patience and knowledge are your friends.
