Popular models: MSRP and what verified buyers paid
Each model page has current trims and starting MSRPs, generations and years to check, and the median discount verified CarWhere buyers got (shown when at least 5 deals exist). Deal snapshot Nov 6, 2026.
How to shop smart for a car
- Pick the model, then the generation. Years to avoid and known issues are generation-specific, so narrow to the right model years before you look at listings.
- Search with your ZIP and compare several of the same model, year range and mileage. One listing tells you little; five tell you the market.
- Run the VIN on your shortlist for title brands, odometer history, accidents and open recalls before you drive anywhere.
- Decode the VIN or pull the build sheet to confirm the trim, engine and options are what the listing claims.
- Get an independent pre-purchase inspection, then negotiate the vehicle price first and fees second. Refuse add-ons you did not ask for.

Frequently asked questions
How much should I pay for a used car?
Used prices depend on year, mileage and condition, so compare several listings for the same model near you. For reference, verified CarWhere buyers paid a typical 6.4% below MSRP on new versions of these models, which sets a ceiling on what a late-model used one is worth. Check each model page for the years to avoid before you make an offer.
What is the best time to buy a used car?
CarWhere's best-time research finds new-car discounts have historically been largest from October through December, and January is strongest for used cars. The seasonal edge is small, though: average discounts in CarWhere's verified deals move by only a point or two between periods, so negotiating matters more than timing.
