Cheapest to pay upfront or cheapest to end up after you get rid of it? Is quality of experience matters? IMHO, get new car that comes with 10 yr warranty, like Hyundai. You'll enjoy it right off the bat, feel safe about any future repairs and be able to resell it at (check the price for 10 yo same model now). We spend in car hours per day - and quality of experience matters a lot (well, to me at least). Hence cheapest junker in town won't cut it for me. Sorry, not much statistics here :)
