Used cars are all well and good, but you may be one of those people who wants to experience the unique thrill of owning a vehicle that's passed through only one pair of hands — yours. There's no substitute for "new car smell," after all.
If you crave something new but have limited funds, consider one of the budget-priced choices listed below; these are the 10 least expensive 2007 sedans and coupes on the market. Rankings are based on MSRP, including destination charges. All are available for less than $15,000, and our top-ranking economy car can be yours for less than $10 grand.
Some of these models are subject to rebates and incentives, which make them even more of a bargain. Be sure to check each car's True Market ValueSM before making a buying decision.
