Looking to buy a good used car. Suggestions?
Including tax, title, and license, I have a budget of $4,500 to buy a car. I have had really bad luck with cars in the past, and want to buy the best car I can with the budget I have. My primary concerns are reliability and safety (especially in winter), as I have a small child. Car will be used mostly to commute to work and run daily errands.
Any suggestions as to make and model to look for as well as year and mileage would be helpful.
Also, I have found 2 cars that might work well for me, and would like some opinions as to weather or not they are good buys.
one is a 2003 Hyundai Elantra with 114,000 miles on it from a dealer offering a 5 day/500 mile return policy for $3,488
The other is a 2003 Cheyv Mailbu with 65,000 miles on it from a private seller asking $4,000
Any ideas or suggestions on what to shop for would be great! Thank you!

whatever car you get have it checked out by a mechanic before you buy well worth the money

Reliable/safe car makes would be Honda/Nissan/Toyota/Volvo.
I would stay away from that Malibu, as they are known to be fairly "lemony" cars and are known for having issues.
Honda accord/civic, Nissan maxima/altima/sentra, Toyota echo/camry/corolla, any Volvo sedan/wagon are good choices. All of these are known for reliability and can go for a long time. Do a little shopping around and see if you can find one of those with reasonable mileage on it.
