In fact, many of the top options come with price tags of less than $10,000. Cars.com recently compiled a list of the highest-quality vehicles for motorists who want to find solid choices for their used automobiles without busting a budget. To do this, Cars.com looked only at vehicles that passed crash tests and came with comprehensive safety features, and then sorted them based on drivability, reliability and practicality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;There are a lot of great used cars on the market, and with a significant price difference between new and used cars, we know that many shoppers choose to go the used route,&quot; said Joe Wiesenfelder, the executive editor of Cars.com. &quot;We sifted through a lot of data, crunched a lot of numbers, and from a pool of more than 60 candidates, we chose the 10 best used cars that shoppers can find for around $10,000.&quot;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The selection Cars.com decided on were all vehicles made from 2007 to 2009. Most were compact cars and sedans, including three creations from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Ford\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Ford<\/a>: the 2009 Ford Focus, the 2008 Ford Fusion and the 2008 Ford Taurus. Those certainly are not the only options, as popular models such as the 2007 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Honda\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Honda<\/a> Civic and 2007 Nissan Altima also made the cut.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Motorists who want to get a bit more unique with their investment can choose alternative-fuel vehicles like the 2007 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Toyota\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Toyota<\/a> Prius. Then, Cars.com expanded its list to include everything from sporty options like the 2008 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Kia\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Kia<\/a> Sportage, 2008 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Scion\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Scion<\/a> xB and 2009 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\/preowned\/index.cfm?make=Hyundai\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">Hyundai<\/a> Sonata to high-class models such as the 2008 Mazda6.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#039;re looking for a used car at the right price, check out the selection at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.njstateauto.com\" target=\"_self\" class=\"dnautolink\">New Jersey State Auto Auction<\/a>. The lot is home to hundreds of Carfax-certified cars, trucks and vans, and one of these vehicles may be right for your next purchase.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drivers have many opportunities to invest in a used car, and to do so they don&#8217;t have to break the bank.
