A 2001 Jetta that I still have.

Getting a car that's a few year's old, completely detailed and ready to drive off the lot is good enough. It is new to me, after all!

The Mustang my parents bought me and the Toyota Sequoia I bought myself.

Now a big Toyota Tundra sits in our drive way because it can't fit in our garage, lol. It's nice though and I love knowing that no one has done anything horrible to it. The new car smell isn't bad either. But we've owned 8 used cars and never had problems with them. We just get sick of our cars too easily. pinkcupcake on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237279 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:22:40 +0000 pinkcupcake 237279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup, the car I drive right now was purchased new.

A Ford Focus in high school, and a Mazda 6 & Subaru Legacy on my own dime. We lease, since we have one car it has to be super reliable with a low upkeep cost. sandy on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237254 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 23:44:06 +0000 sandy 237254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @skibobrown: I love Subarus! My first car was a Subaru SVX and I loved that car! I would love to get an outback but I think we want third row seating for our next car. We have 2 new cars and our plan is to keep buying new, take good care of them, and drive them as long as possible. skibobrown on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237252 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 23:37:57 +0000 skibobrown 237252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep. In my family we have only ever bought new... and then we keep them as long as possible before purchasing the next car. My first car was a new Subaru Legacy sedan that I drove for 12 years. Now I have a new Subaru Forrester that I just bought last year. We just sold DH's car, and we're in the market for a new car for him too. calsmom on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237247 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 23:18:58 +0000 calsmom 237247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I bought one new, and I won't do it again. The car I drive now is used, and in perfect condition. It's a total waste of money to buy new. StrawberryBee on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237181 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 22:33:18 +0000 StrawberryBee 237181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, three. Honda civic which I traded in for a Honda crv. When that was totaled (not my fault) I used the insurance money to buy another new crv. I figured that if I could walk away from a rollover with nothing but a bruise on my knee, it was worth getting again! I like Hondas because they don't depreciate as much, and I like new because I know it's been treated right. mrsjyw on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237173 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 22:27:29 +0000 mrsjyw 237173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup. My Pontiac g6 that I drive now. And the Honda accord I had in college. anonysquire on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237083 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 21:45:06 +0000 anonysquire 237083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 4 brand new cars. A jeep in high school A FJ cruiser in college A Kia soul 2 years ago A Kia Rio in February. rachiecakes on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237081 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 21:44:50 +0000 rachiecakes 237081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep, on my second - a Prius C. We pay a sizeable down payment so we're not financing much and pay it off within 2-3 years. I had too many used cars that I ended up spending way too much money on. MrsSPB on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-237072 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 21:42:08 +0000 MrsSPB 237072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep. Just bought myself a new one in May. My car before that was also brand new. A built in navigation system is a must have item for me, so until they become standard options, buying used cars isn't an option.

My dad bought it for me for my 16th birthday. After that, I've only had used cars.

I was going to buy a used one when I bought my new one but the it was only a few hundred dollars more for a brand new one verses a used one.

Although hubby wants to buy a brand new Harley one day which will be probably more money than a regular new car anyway!

Such a waste of money. autumnlove on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-236770 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:38:05 +0000 autumnlove 236770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup, 3 brand new cars! chopsuey on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-236740 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:29:16 +0000 chopsuey 236740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep! leelee on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-236728 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:26:09 +0000 leelee 236728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yup!

I bought my Mazda new and I absolutely adore this car. Not only is it paid off but it has almost 100,000 miles on it and it has only needed oil changes and tires. I love it!! eeh on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-236691 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:15:23 +0000 eeh 236691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've had one brand new one. Won't buy another...it's pretty much never a good deal. We'll only buy used from now on. My husband knows a lot about cars and is good at finding good deals on good cars. I trust him to buy reliable ones.

Now the car has over 66000 miles. When we get another new one, it'll be mine. mrs. bird on "Have you ever had a brand new car?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-had-a-brand-new-car#post-236682 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 19:12:27 +0000 mrs. bird 236682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope. I don't think I ever will. Doesn't bother be to get one used so I figure I might as well let someone else eat the depreciation.
