Luxury cars are seen as a symbol of success and prestige. In the journey of a never-ending rat race, many car buyers often fall into the trap of buying an expensive car above their means and then going bankrupt for it.
However, that does not mean you can still own a nice car! Here are five used cars you can buy for cheap that will make you look rich driving them.
10th Generation Honda Civic
The Honda Civic, especially the 10th and 11th generation are a far cry from the cheap sedans they used to be known for. Demand for the Civic sedan has skyrocketed with many even willing to go broke for it.
Since the launch of the 11th generation Honda Civic, the 10th gen is still a great bargain in the used market. The 1.5L turbocharged and the 1.8L naturally aspirated four-banger engine with the infamous i-VTEC is still a force to be reckoned with.

Mini Cooper/Mini Hatch (Post-2014 models)
What’s not to like about these cars? They’re cute, light, handle superbly, and fast. Get the six-speed manual transmission variant if you want even more bragging rights. The Mini Coopers also get a ton of aftermarket support if you want to spice up its performance.
Used Mini Coopers are an absolute bargain in the used market especially the post-2014 models as they are more reliable according to consumer reports.
Mini Coopers also share some parts with BMW cars which makes spare parts easy to source, albeit expensive.

Mercedes Benz A250 Sedan AMG Line
The Mercedes Benz A250 hatchback is highly desirable but don’t sleep on the sedan variant.
Under the hood is a generous 2.0L turbocharged four-banger engine mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). With an output of 224PS and 350Nm, it’s more than enough to make you smile when you floor it.
Furthermore, this spec comes with an AMG body kit as it is part of Mercedes’ AMG Line. It doesn’t have the bells and whistles of the real AMG spec but at least it looks cool.

Used 2008 – 2010 Toyota Vellfire/Alphard
Despite being a glorified Hiace, the Toyota Vellfire still garners a high demand due to its status symbol associated with.
The Vellfire, or known as the Alphard in Japan and certain parts of Asia, is the chariot of choice among politicians and prominent businesspeople.
A brand new or recond one should net you around to the tune of less than RM250,000
If the brand-new one is too expensive, there are always used units to explore around. Used units are also desirable for their reliability and comfort; it’s a Toyota after all.
Specifications and trim levels are plenty but the 2.4L four-cylinder and the 3.5L V6 engine variants mainstaples on the road.

Mazda 6 Touring
