<p>I'm looking to buy a used car next year to get around campus/town/home, any suggestions on which models and where to look? My budget is around $3000-6000 at the most. </p>
<p>Also, what are you driving right now?</p>
<p>You could get an old Civic or something… try to go for decent gas mileage, cause that’s what’ll hit you with the money (on top of insurance, of course). </p>
<p>I’m driving an 03 VW Passat that was about 13k when I got it yeaaaaaars ago.</p>
<p>With $6000 you could definitely afford a decent Civic from the past decade. I agree you should focus on gas mileage, but with $6000 you have a TON of options.</p>
