I have heard that a car is the fastest depreciating asset you can ever own. It is incredible that it can drop by as much as 20% by the time it is just one year old! I for one don’t like the new car smell, but that isn’t the only reason that I will be buying used cars. Like you say, there are countless financial benefits, like lower car insurance premiums and avoiding paying the biggest year of depreciation. It seems like the best option, for sure.

I really appreciate this information on the benefits of buying a used car. I like that you point out that they have many, if not all of the benefits of a new car, just for a lower price. I think it is interesting that the price can go down so much even if it is so lightly used. Thanks for the information!

Thank you for listing the benefits of buying a used car! Some of these points were things that I had already thought of, but I really liked the point about being able to find a greater variety of used than new cars. Since I want to find a distinctive car in a color I like as well as saving money, I think buying a pre-owned car is the right choice for me!
