Does this exist? lol

If you paid close to that, what car do you have? Dh's car is on the way out, and he wants a car with AWD but we don't want to spend too much, as we want to do a shorter loan.

Thanks

What do you guys think? Good deal? We've seen alot of Rogues for a similar price, but they are standard without the bluetooth and back up camera that this one comes with. Under 30k miles and has AWD

You could get the Subaru Impreza for about that.

New car? Can't think of top of my head, but you could get pretty close with a Subaru Impreza. The Forester entry level model is pretty close to Impreza price too. Maybe look for a low mileage used car, like Honda CRV

we are actually looking at used more than new, like the rogue and a few others. Was asking which cars cost around 20 brand new, so that we can buy a used one for 15k... his car will probably sell for around 6 or 7k, and we would finance the rest. We want payments to be around $250/month for a 3 year loan. Bethpage has rates at 2.34% for used vehicles.

A new Impreza is going for 18K and change . I got a Forrester in April, stripped down models start at about 23K.

Re: AWD car for under 20k

my CRV was the middle of the line , brand new in 2012 when the new style came out and it was like $24-25K. no haggle room bc of new style

they just did a "remodel" so they may not be haggling again but it's totally worth it, love it.

ETA- DW has the rogue and the "extras" that are standard on CRV add up FAST so it ended up being more $. i feel the CRV has more room inside.

You can get a new Hyundai Tuscon with AWD for just over $22K, so maybe if there's a "last year's model" or something like that, it would be under $20K

They're doing 0% apr for 60 months too- and $2000 cash rebate so we would be right around the mark. Thanks! Do you have a tucson? Do you like it?

No, I don't have one - just happened to see a commercial for it this morning and thought of this post. Chat Icon
