The VERY BEST Used Cars for Under $15K

Everyone needs reliable transportation these days. Sure, you can get by riding the MTA bus and the LIRR, but who wants to do that? Not you. Nope. But, you also don’t need a $700 a month car payment. What you need is a dependable car that won’t crush you without jackhammering your paycheck. A solid used car for less than $15K is just what the doctor ordered. 

As usual — Major World has the perfect solution for your transportation needs. Here’s our list of the BEST used cars under $15 large. 

How Do I Find a Reliable Used Car for Less Than $15K?

Inflation and rising new car prices have hit the American consumer like a jab-cross. If you’re seeing stars after checking out new and used car prices lately, you’re not alone. The good news is that you can still find a solid used car in Queens for under $15,000. 

But you don’t want to jump into the hunt for a new car without being armed with some information. If you just wing it and buy a car off of Facebook Marketplace, you might do OK, or you might end up with a lemon. 

Whether you’re dropping $15K all at once or making payments —- you need to make sure you’re getting your money’s worth. 

The best way to do that is:

  1. Know which used cars under $15K offer the best value for your money.
  2. Find a dealership with a rock-solid reputation selling quality used cars in New York.
  3. Get yourself pre-qualified for financing on your >$15K used car ahead of time. 

Major World is going to help you do all three of those things — right now.

Best Mid-Sized Cars Under $15K

Mid-sized sedans, coupes, and wagons hit that “Goldilocks” spot for many people. They are roomier than small hatchbacks and compact sedans but still easy to park in a tight space and nimble enough to thread the needle when you’re whipping through traffic on the LIE. We have some great mid-sized cars for less than $15k to choose from; here are our favorite ones.

The Mazda 6 is a winner, and we offer Mazda 6 sedans priced under $15K.
  • Ford Fusion (2016-2020): One of our favorite mid-sized sedans. The Ford Fusion is a solid, sporty mid-sized sedan with Aston Martin looks and an intriguing range of engine and transmission options, including a hybrid that gets more than 40 mpg. The Fusion is a masterful blend of sex appeal and sensibility that’s tough to beat. Find a Ford Fusion for less than $15k right here at Major World. 
  • Honda Accord (2012-2016 ): The Honda Accord is a perennial favorite. They’re reliable and rewarding to drive. Safe in an accident, good on gas. What’s not to like? Some people won’t buy anything but a Honda, and we get it. Major World has Honda Accords that are under $15K for you.

Why settle for less than what you deserve? Think big. Here are our favorite pre-owned luxury cars for under $15k. 

Best Luxury Cars Under $15K

  • BMW 5-Series (2012-2018 ):  BMW’s mid-sized sport sedan is widely recognized as a sign of success the world over. Powerful engines in a rigid chassis with an athletic suspension and every luxury feature you could really want. Ultra-comfortable, well-bolstered leather seats and a beautiful wind-cheating shape that’s guaranteed to grab attention. Let the first owner eat the depreciation while you reap the rewards.

  • Infiniti Q50 (2014-2020 ): Infiniti makes an outstanding luxury sedan in every way. They always have. One of our favorite things about them is you don’t see them absolutely everywhere.
