6 Used Cars With Top Safety Marks
November 12, 2015
Next to price, safety is one of the biggest deciding factors when it comes to purchasing a vehicle. After all, a car or truck that doesn't keep you and your passengers safe while traveling from Point A to Point B is not something you would want to sink your hard-earned money into.
US News & World Reports recently released their top used car picks when it comes to safety. Even better? All six vehicles cost and average of less than $21,000. Vehicles on the list include the 2012 Honda Civic, 2011 Ford Taurus and 2011 Chevrolet Malibu.
If you're considering purchasing any of these top safety picks, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle, CarsDirect and NADAGuides to see the best deals being offered in your area.
| Vehicle | Avg. Price Paid |
|---|---|
| 2011 Chevrolet Malibu | $12,208-$14,471 |
| 2011 Ford Taurus | $12,044-$16,202 |
| 2012 Buick Verano | $15,943-$17,004 |
| 2012 Honda Accord | $15,462-$20,895 |
| 2012 Honda Civic | $11,704-$19,475 |
| 2012 Toyota Prius | $17,225-$18,444 |

TrueCar No-Haggle, CarsDirect, and NADAGuides are the quickest way to see the lowest car prices in your area.

Follow this up with my checklist to make sure you squeeze out every last bit of savings.- Gregg Fidan
