<prompt> Human: I am trading in a 98 Toyota Avalon with 192k miles. I am paying for my car in full. This will be my first car purchase and I dont really have someone in my life to ask, so im hoping you all can help.  <response>: If youre trying to save money when buying a car, the best way to do that is to be open-minded about what sort of car youre buying. If you have only one car in mind, you are dependent on one person deciding they have to sell the car to you at your price. They may not decide that the way you want them to.How would you compare this to an older, less expensive car?
