    Another cool site is driverside.com, it has info on price, repair schedules, JD power reviews, annual cost of ownership, and some more stuff that I missed.

    I would think that they're all sponsored in one way or another, some more forthcoming about it than others. Ain't nobody what works for free, yo!

    If you want to buy a high quality car with a lowest price for the most reliable,I suggest you try auto auctions.

    There are there kinds of car auctions.
    Dealer only auctions --- only licensed dealers are allowed to buy or sell cars,You can not get in or bid without being a licensed car dealer or an employee.

    Public auctions --- the public is allowed in.In fact,you usually cant by anything from public 'open' auctions because usually the pricing is too high.

    Government and Police auctions --- Every day, the government confiscates, seizes and repossesses thousands of Vehicles.These vehicles are usually typically listed at 90% OFF their original value and auctions usually start at $100.

    Four months ago,I bouht a near new SUV from online police auction.It only cost me $730 and i have not had one problem with it yet .
    I followed the guide on
    http://www.usedcarsinfo.info/index.php?t=usedcar .That site lists top 5 Police auction sites and help you choose the best one.
    Hope that can help you.

    I have found Phil Edmonston's "Lemon-Aid" car guides to be very helpful. Lemon-Aid publishes four new books annually: new cars / minivans, used cars / minivans, new SUVs / trucks, and used SUVs / trucks. They can usually be found at libraries or you can purchase them at a bookstore or from the Lemon-Aid website (http://www.lemonaidcars.com/).

    As with any vehicle evaluation, not every problem is found on every car and the author depends on user's feedback, as well as on the automobile industry and safety agencies. I have found the Lemon-Aid books to be quite accurate for the cars that I have owned, right down to the age of the car at which a specific problem can occur.

    Always worth a look, both for the advice and the auto information.

    For wholesale (what the dealer paid) and retail (what he hopes you will pay) prices, visit the Kelley Blue Book site: www.kbb.com.
    For negotiating tactics and tips from a retired car salesman, visit www.beat-the.com.
    To know the history of a specific vehicle, jot down the vehicle identificatioin number (VIN) and get a report from www.carfax.com.
