You can get something used but, then you have to anticipate the occasional downtime for something. And knowing a decent place to get repairs.
I've been shopping and in the market looking for used in the 3 year old and under price point. That puts you in a position of partial to no warranty and any financing terms are typically shorter or more expensive depending on the term.
I've actually been looking at Kia.
Ok, not me but the wife.
But, beyond journalist impressions and consumer reviews, I never really looked at them.
They have come a long way with improvement of their fit and finish. Backed with decent warranty and appear to be just as reliable as other manufacturers. If not, a little better.
I prefer to support the local economy by looking at civics or corolla but, the lady wants a hatch back and something with a higher seating position like her Matrix.
Not suggesting you have the same needs.
Just saying it's worth a look to see if they have any product offerings that meets yours needs within you budget.
They are on my radar so, maybe they could be too?
