6 used cars you SHOULD BUY according to the 20+ years of CAR WIZARD mechanic experience!

2:00 2012-2017 Toyota Camry 4:55 1999-2005 Buick LeSabre 7:13 Toyota Prius (hoovie approved!) 10:20 2005-2014 Ford Mustang 13:26 2000-2005 Cadillac DeVille 17:24 1997-2003 E46 BMW 3 series

Big wheels don’t do too well above 100,000 miles. I was the youngest of 9 so I am familiar with high mileage big wheels. Used to bring it to the shop weekly: blown out wheels, snapped pedals, twisted up forks, brittle plastic from sun fade, you name it. Overall worth it for the exhilaration they provide but they really are more like Hoovie’s new used M5 than a newer Toyota

Finally, someone mentioned my car!!!!! I bought a 2002 Buick Park Avenue 6 years ago with 198,000 miles for $1,500. Now, it has 270,000 miles and purrs like a kitten. I've spent about $2,000 on repairs in that time. Great mileage, great reliability, and GREAAAAAAT ride. Love it.

I am laughing so hard when he’s talking about the BMW! Also I can listen to Mr Wizard talk all day! His voice is so calm and soothing & I actually learn a lot! As a girl my Dad always taught me how to do things bc he wanted me to be self sufficient. So I love learning from Mr Wizard!

"Welcome to the Wizards yacht" - man that made me smile! No Youtuber I subscribe to deserves to chill out on his yacht more than the Wizard and his family.

Six cars you should buy according to Wizard: 2012-2017 Toyota Camry, 1999-2005 Buick LeSabre, Toyota Prius, 2005-2014 Ford Mustang, 2000-2005 Cadillac Seville (if you can fix it yourself), 1997-2003 BMW E-3

Totally agree with the Mustang. Just got an '07 with 44,000 miles for my daughter and every time I drive it I think this is a great car. Feels good, drives great and is really fun. Of course, it does help that it is a convertible.

Got a e46 3 series for scrap price and fixed it myself, huge value, drives amazing, you are spot on about them, “nobody maintains them so they’re dirt cheap”

Lmao! "You're not going to maintain it either". Wizard, you are TOO funny!

Describing the prius as a rock that you just find on the ground is perfect.

This channel is such a gem! No nonsensical drag races like we see in many of car youtubers channels with millions of subscribers. On top of that, here lies an actual car wizard, fixing cars for more than 20 years! (Not an automotive industry lapdog like most youtubers out there.)

My oldest son wanted a cool car when he was 16. He worked summer jobs for a few years and earned about $4000. When he was ready to buy I asked him how much he had. He said $300 so we looked for a $300 car in 1980. He found a 1971 Chevy Vega GT. It wasn't badly rusted and the paint looked good. It ran well with a clutch 4 speed and a full set of gauges in the plastic mahogany dashboard. He loved it and drove it hard for a year, learning to replace head gaskets in few hours until it used as many quarts of oil as gallons of gas. I said it needs another engine. No use trying to rebuild that one. We looked around and found another GT badly rusted for $100. We pulled the engine on a big branch of the old maple tree and did the swap the next day. He ran it for another two years until it was so rusted it looked like it would break in half. He couldn't drive it to the junk yard, he was so sad for the car he loved. I took it there and I was sad too.

Love my Camry. It's made me lifetime loyal to the brand. At present, 112,000 miles on a 2014 and I haven't had to put a dime in it outside of general maintenance. Oil changes, brakes, and tires. Runs great. Drives great. Plan on driving the wheels off of it.

I love the Used car sessions "You should and shouldn't buy" Keep them comming!

Was watching this with my significant other in the room. She bursted out laughing when you started talking about the 3-series because i own a 2004 e46. I do maintain mine, i bought it so cheap because it had a laundry list of issues. Fixed them and this car has given me 45,000 miles so far. I plan on giving it to the kid if it doesn't blow up by then. 👍

I sold my '01 e46 to my mechanic after an 8-year relationship. I was ready to be done; he was OK to keep working on it forever. Still looked, drove and COST me like new.

My K20 8th gen Civic Si and 93 Miata have been the most reliable cars i've ever had too. Few other good ones to add.

Obviously the Wizard didn't drive his big wheel hard! I wore out several of them, flat spotted front wheels until they wore through from sliding, and even the rear wheels too. We even broke the frame from riding on it like a scooter. It was fun!

E46 330ci was the funnest car I've ever owned. I regretted selling the first so I bought another. I did a bunch of track days with them. They were cheap to buy and easy to keep alive. I swear it ran better after I beat on it.

I'm a local car dealer. I stumbled across this guy. He's the Real Deal. 👍👍👍
