Question For AutoBrag: New Corolla or Used Honda Civic
Question From Tami: hello, I have two deals one is for a corolla and the other is a certified pre-owned civic.
2008 Honda Civic LX Auto – certified pre-owned w/ 5k miles – $13,800
2009 Toyota corolla LE Auto – $14, 500
which do you think is the better deal – new or used? Thanks
Queen of the Road: Hi Tami. Welcome to AutoBragBlog.
Both deals are a steal. The Civic is being sold at a wholesale price and the Corolla looks like it’s more than 15% off MSRP. It’s a tough call because both are about equally great.
What is the MSRP of the Honda?

Another thing to consider is your cost of financing – new car financing is almost always going to be cheaper. Plus, match warranties to see which gives the better protection. Both makers have strong reputations – but Toyota has been having issues lately. Personally, I’d go with the Honda but that’s a personal bias!
