Product Description
Buying a used car is a greater risk than buying a new one, but can also be the best automotive deal around. The 2008 edition of Used Car Buying Guide will help anyone in the market get the best price – and minimize risk – when buying, selling, or trading in a used vehicle. As it is best to be armed with as much information as possible before stepping onto a used car lot, this book will provide everything needed including: Unbiased reviews of every major model from 2000 – 2007 Exclusive Reliability Ratings based on over 1 million vehicles Lists of the best and worst used vehicles and how to avoid a lemon A checklist of what to look for when inspecting a used car Best used cars for gas mileage Tips on negotiating the best price Recalls and crash test information Making sense of safety information How to get the most money when trading in your current car PLUS profiles of more than 260 cars, trucks, and SUVs, presenting all major 2000-2007 models Each profile contains a photo from the representative year, a write-up of the vehicle, reliability history, crash-test data, and the model years when key safety gear was added and when a major redesign was made.

Excellent product August 7, 2009 Mark Headrick (Austin TX) I have collected these Consumer Reports Buying Guides for twenty years now. I have older issues going back to the late 1960s. I would never buy a car or truck, new or used, without consulting my CRBGs. They are indispensible.
Excellent source of material June 2, 2009 Brian Clark Glasgow (CA Central Coast) The Kelly Blue Book would go nicely with this book. Consumer Reports has always been a no nonsense magazine. Coupled with current pricing from the KBB, you should have no problem deciding what you want in transportation.
This Book Will Could Save You Thousands February 16, 2009 The Research Fanatic 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I rarely take the time to review something. But for anyone out there who might be waffling I would STRONGLY encourage you to purchase this. Consumer Reports has spent YEARS studying and researching cars. Find out what used cars are best. I always spend a significant amount of time studying Consumer Reports before I ever walk out of the door.
You'll be surprised what you learn. Cars you thought were top-notch may have years where they had serious problems. The insights you learn will save you thousands of dollars and tons of frustration. It will be the BEST 10 bucks you ever spend!
I'm tempted to write down my address because I know you'll want to send me a gift for recommending this!
wise consumer use October 7, 2008 Mary K. Asma (Virginia) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have always used this book when purchasing new and used cars, gives the buyer an edge both for quality and price. It is now in a different format and I believe doesn't include as much information as when published in book form, rather than this extended magazine format. But, in this day when we must watch every penny, it is a must.
Don't buy a used car without it. July 4, 2008 M. Bair (oHIo) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is such a great resource for buying a used car. Especially the real world MPG and reliability ratings. I'll never start research to buy another car without it.
