Buy new at all costs from the dealer or buy a used one from the dealer at only $500-$900 above the actual dealer cost, If you buy one used its vital you get the extended bumper to bumper waranty, all odds are you will need it. There is no way to really tell how the previous owner maintained or drove the car, specialy on a leased vehicle etc.
You can even buy a bumper to bumper waranty on a privately purchased car, but the costs are usually higher than the dealer provided waranties. Geico actually has a pretty good extended bumper to bumper waranty and it only costs about and extra $14 a month, not bad if something goes wrong.
