What are good cars from 6k-8k?

[Balla]

I heard a German car can either be really good or really bad. What was your experience with a German car that was around this price range if you had one or know someone that has ?

If not german, What yall recommend personally?

:huhldby: wrong WW2 enemy, breh. you mean japanese. honda civic or toyota camry

if 6-8k is your range, then id say shoot towards those for the most reliability and cheapest repairing. hyundai too

If you're in that bracket you shouldn't be looking for German engineering.

You can def scoop a decent Volkswagen for that price, though I'd stay away from any cc under 10k. I know, they're pretty. But a well maintained Passat could get you right

Cc? Car?

You think payments and a newer car would be better?

Cc was a 4 door coupe made by vw. Beautiful but at that price, it wouldn't be reliable. I paid 5k for my wrx so no, I advise against a note. TBH, I would spend no more than 5k on a jap car and stack to invest in real estate. I know I sound like a broken record on this board but I really mean it.

Any Altima, Camry, Civic, Corolla, Maxima you can find at that price that isn’t older than 2011 will do you just fine.

If you can't afford maintenance stay away from old German cars. It will just be a money pit unless you know how to work on it yourself.

If you want something reliable take Lupe's advice and get yourself a Camry or Accord/Civic.

Recommendations?

Like @the cac mamba said, pretty much anything Japanese. The only thing I'd say is Nissan doesn't have a great reputation with transmissions.

German shyt trash, all badge buying, especially in that price range. Buy Japanese with low miles. Go with Toyota/Lexus. Plenty for under 8,000 with less than 100 miles. Surplus of parts that you can learn to repair yourself or source to local shops for cheap. Only compromise is it's likely 15+ years old.

German cars are amazing.

My Vovlo still runs after I totaled it listening to March Madness doing 95 on George Bush during a Hurricane

You can get an 11' or maybe 12' Bimma for that 8,000. It's gonna be approaching 100k, though.

If my funds were that constrained like that, I would just cop a nice Accord or an Optima /w lower mileage & all the features.

Actually seeing alot of the newer Sonata's (2015+) going for 8500ish. Those are nice.
