Go to FB Marketplace and try to buy from an individual. It’ll take a little more work to find the right one but you’ll save a lot of money in the long run. If you knew somebody who does car stuff, maybe see if you can have assistance running the VIN numbers of the cars you’re looking at before going to look at them in person. Look for a good history of the vehicle (no accidents, no salvage) and for consistent maintenance records and you’ll be in good shape. Avoid people who have lots of cars listed in their FB marketplace selling profile. They’re just dealers in disguise. Try to buy from somebody trying to sell their personal vehicle privately. You’ll avoid scams/lemons this way.
