Buying A Car

Task: Explain what kind of car you would buy and why. Would you buy new or used, or would you lease? What would your payment be?


I will be buying a new car rather than buying a used or lease car because with a new car, I can be 100% sure that it will be in a very good condition. I would worry a lot less with the new car than the used car because it's brand new so it doesn't have any damages yet unlike the used car. I will save some money for not taking my car almost every month to a car repair shop because some parts broke. I will buy Toyota Prius 2008 4d hatchback. I like it because it's simple but stylish. It may look small, but the well-packaged and airy interior is spacious for passengers and cargo alike. I don't want to buy a luxurious one because it's dangerous especially if I'll be staying here for quite some time in New York. What I've liked about the Toyota Prius 2008, it's hybrid. It's capable of running on electricity alone or in concert with the small gasoline four-cylinder engine, the Toyota Prius is capable of fuel economy that no current mainstream car can match. It is also affordable for me with its low base price, it fits my budget. I chose the classic silver metallic color because it looks simple yet sophisticated just like me. I will take out a bank loan to pay my car. The car costs $22,998 including the destination charge. I believe in 3-5 years I'm done paying it.
