CarFinance.com recently compiled a list of the top 10 options for below-prime buyers, and the results showed that certain vehicles and brands are tops when it comes to merging quality and price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Below-prime buyers are frequently turning to auto loans to purchase used cars, but that doesn&#039;t change the fact that they are typically drawn to certain vehicles. Compact cars and trucks are among&nbsp;the&nbsp;top choices for these drivers, but regardless of the type of vehicle, they always keep an eye out for good value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The CarFinance.com Top 10 List offers a snapshot of the vehicle preferences of consumers credited with helping drive U.S. auto sales growth,&#8221; said Jim Landy, CEO of CarFinance. &#8220;The automaker brands that show up on these lists should take note: today&#039;s below-prime car buyer &#8211; who is already rebuilding credit with a car purchase &#8211; could be your brand-loyal prime customer of tomorrow.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Topping the list of vehicles&nbsp;were&nbsp;the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Dodge\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Dodge<\/a> Avenger and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Kia\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Kia<\/a> Optima. The two cars tied for the No. 1 spot, thanks in large part to low sticker prices, decent fuel economy and amenities, and strong safety features. They were followed by the Kia Forte, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Ford\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Ford<\/a> Focus and Kia Soul, all of which boasted a nice blend of the qualities that below-prime buyers are looking for.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You may be looking for one of these popular choices or any other type of used car, but no matter what your preferences are, you could find the right investment at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">NJ State Auto Auction<\/a>.
