Buying a new or used car?

The car of my dreams will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars if I wait to buy it new. I wouldn't mind buying an ex-Japan or something. Provided it is at least not older than 10yrs with a decent mileage of course. Am a frugal person, i don't just buy what is on the shelf, i dig deep!
I agree with that! Even some used cars are not even budget friendly. People try to make their money back as much as they can when they sell their car.
This is true. It doesnt make sense actually buying a new expensive vehicle when you can get a good used one that will still serve you for long.
I'm always for used cars first, because when you buy a brand new car, the same second you already lose let's say 10-15%, and in that way, you are losing your hard-earned money.
I'm buying used cars always because I don't wanna lose that much by the years. I paid my car $7k 3 years ago, and I saw on the CL that I can sell it for $6k. The 2013 year.
A friend bought a used Jeep 2008 for $3500 and Tom cruise bought the same car but a brand new one for $300,000.
Tom cruise sold his while my friend is still using is. My point here is, how can Tom just waste that kind of cash on that kind of car.

I prefer new car to used car if I can manage to buy it. But If I can't afford new car, I will prefer to go for used car. We should all spend according to our Pocket value.
Well, you can save some good portion of money by buying a used car instead of a new one. Better you get the car checked by a car mechanic before buying a used one.
I propose a used car but conditionally comfortable than a new one because I'm a money saver expert.
I will prefer to buy a new car , because it will be guaranteed that it will not be having any kind of issue.
I have never owned a new car and honestly do not see the point in buying a new one. Soon as you drive a new car off the lot, it drops in value by 5 grand or more. I think it is fine to lease a new car but when it comes to buying, just find someone who took care of their car, like a single-owner car and you will have like no issues. My car is a 2014 Sonata and the previous owner bought it new. The car runs perfectly and will likely last a good 10+ years with regular maintenance and care.
