When I look for a used car, I always look online first. You never know what kind of deal you can find! I start researching and usually within five to ten minutes I can find exactly what I'm looking for.

You will want to check out Autotrader, Craigslist, and Cars.com. Also, check out the kelly blue book price too! That way you have an idea of where to start. Typically, during times of recession prices drop due to lack of demand. The price must fall. I would not pay blue book for any used car right now, offer 80% and most sellers will sell.
