Date: July 17th, 2018 11:16 AM Author: Rose nowag spot Seems like there is basically no objective benefit to buying a new car other than tech features which can be installed pretty cheap into an older car thay you can get for dirt cheap.
Seems crazy to me to shell out $30-40k for a new car that isn't a particularly special driving experience. |

Some luxury cars are ticking time bombs, so low mileage doesnt help much. |

A few year old Lexus is about the best way to go. It wont be riced out. Most people who buy Lexus cars tend to take decent care of them.
Find a reliable independent mechanic. Change synthetic oil every 6-10k miles. Change all fluids (transmission/coolant/inverter/etc) every like 70k miles. You should be good until 200k miles. |

Some are perfect garage kept impeccable service history, everything sorted.
The hard part is finding the latter.
Keep in mind anything rubber is as much a time issue as miles: tires, seals, hoses, timing belt, fuel lines, brake lines, window and door seals, etc. etc. But yes, if you find a 20 year old Lexus SC300 that was garaged by the old guy who owned it and rarely driven, that is a pretty credited car. But save the original radio as the replacement will look like shit and devalues the car. |

Date: July 18th, 2018 2:31 AM Author: Vengeful tanning salon stock car Carfax only gets info from legit dealers, dmv, and autobodies that report it.
Ive had a car with significant body work that had nothing mentioned in carfax.
Also its so insanely easy to roll back the odometer that Im surprised its not done more often. |

Date: July 18th, 2018 3:04 AM Author: pontificating ladyboy Aftermarket Bluetooth modules are available for just about any semi-popular model. They are small enough to fit in your dash and work very well. That takes care of all your audio concerns.
As for navigation, I have used in-car navigation systems from most of the manufacturers, and none of them comes close to Google maps on my phone.
Last, and certainly not least, infotainment systems are a nightmare from a usability standpoint. Hard buttons, analog instruments, and basic alpha-numeric displays when necessary are much better than LCD touchscreens and digging through menus.
