What to expect from a used car under $15,000
At this price you're usually looking at vehicles that are several years old, with more miles than a nearly new car. That's not a bad thing. A well-maintained car with higher miles can be a smarter buy than a neglected one with fewer. What matters most is:
- The vehicle history report: accidents, title status, and how many owners it's had
- Maintenance: signs of regular oil changes and care
- Condition underneath: Chicago-area road salt is hard on cars, so check for rust
- Tires and brakes: both are wear items that affect your first-year costs
Our used car buying checklist walks through all 15 things to check before you sign.
