just a short disclaimer so you don't get your hopes up: if you're on a budget of only $3000 u probably don't want to be spending a lot on gas or maintanence which will be a major issue because it is extremely rare to find a car under $3000 that doesn't have insane miles on it already

Prediction before I watch; No car on this list is actually obtainable for 3K unless it has 200000 or more miles on it.

Man are you psychic!? First car was over 3k (even in their example listing), but if you use their financial tips you're sure to find one under 3k 😂

You used to be able to find a rare V6 manual 4th gen Eclipse for that price- I got mine for 3. They're absolute slept on steals and rip just as hard as a 350z and can compete, not necessarily beat, cars that are more expensive. The 4 cylinder automatics are weak especially paired with their heavy weight but the 6 cylinder manuals are no joke. They didn't make many though so finding one is hard enough, let alone still in good shape.

old toyotas are monsters... my mom had a 1996 toyota avalon for like 10 years when i was a younger and it made it to about 250k before it got impounded bc of my uncle lol. the price to get the car out was more than the car itself, this was around 2011. That thing was a straight luxury car in the early 2000s

Maintenance is key for every car, but don't forget the car guy triangle Fast, Cheap and Reliable... you can only have two of those, with varying percentages. I agree with Brad on choosing almost every car on the list, and choosing the E46 as the best choice, I have a E46. If you find an example without rust, everything else is cheap to maintain and parts are not that hard on the budget as some people think. I had a 325i which I crashed while drifting when I was a "noob", now I own a 328i, the only thing that broke was the fan controller, but it didn't overheat (because I caught it in time). I got a new fan with fan controller for $50, a coolant expansion tank for $40 and I did change the sparkplugs because they were old.... that's all for a 3 year ownership of the car. (Not counting the tuning I did to it). P.S.- It has 300k miles, original motor... so if someone told you that they are not reliable, he is not a reliable.

Found a mk4 1.8t Jetta on the cheap with good mileage that I’m going to look at this weekend. It’s an automatic but I’ve driven one and they’re pretty fun even with the auto

The supercharged 5spd 4wd version of the nissan exterra was a nice lil beater back in the day. Especially now days even cheaper.

My friend and I both got 1.5 gen usdm focus's several years ago for $1,000. Mine has almost 200k miles and his has 400k miles and they've costed almost nothing to keep running. Buzzy ride & cheap interior but as reliable as corollas so far.

love my xterra! 2001 4x4 manual i bought for $2500. tough as nails!

I knew the 4th-Gen TL in the thumbnail wasn’t going to be cheap.

I have an 01 golf gls with a 1.8t and its been quite the putter. Originally got it for only $2.5k a little over 3 years ago with 132k miles. Plenty of problems over the years but the worst was when my 3rd gear went out. Ended up getting it rebuilt for 3k(more than the car was worth) because the used car market had just exploded in price. Still love the car. It has a P0420 code that went away after i put air in my tires. Cant make sense of it.

Pontiac grand prix gtp coupe/ monte carlo ss supercharged be bought for under $3000. Cheap and easy to learn to modify. Can make up to 700 hp out of the 3800 with a different transmission. And they handle great with mods for that Also. Only downfall the 4t65ehd transmission is limited to 300hp.

I hate that my baby made it on this list, but he is right. I bought my 2005 Golf GTi in 2012 for 9k. It is now at 175,000 miles and runs like a dream. Still pulls hard too. That little turbo has no quit. Mtx wise nothing crazy, a clutch, a couple of cracked vacuum lines and a power steering rack. Nothing major.

As a man who has spent half his life under a hood almost all of the cars on this list are nightmares to own. The G35 Camry tl and the es are the way to go for happy ownership. The Rx would be if the engine wasn't simply too big for the vehicle. The 4cyl Camry is without a doubt the best for reliability, ease of repair and availability of parts on the list. Too bad they are so slow and bland, u can't have your cake....

I’d like to know how and where you managed to find a G35 for 3k😅

A family member had one of those xterra's and they are not a good SUV. Yes they have a Pathfinder engine, yes they're great off-road... BUT they have cheap sensors that go bad early before you've done any mileage, and you have to take the engine apart to replace them. That's what happened to the Xterra that my family member had, and it kept randomly shutting off. It was going to cost thousands to fix it. Instead we got rid of it and traded it in for a CX-5 and they have put tons of miles on that Mazda without any problems. The seats had to be replaced because they were defective and ripping, but the dealer took care of it. So no big deal. Otherwise it's a pretty good car.... except for some occasional squeaking in the dashboard. I'm sure it's probably just a loose screw a mechanic could go hunting for. It happens, especially when you put several hundred thousand miles on a car. That's just what cars do with high mileage.
