Good cars can be had at bargain-basement prices. Here are the ones you should be looking at.

If you wanted a cheap car 15 years ago, your options were limited to the kind of transportation usually reserved for Third World countries. Back then, cars on the low end of the spectrum amounted to nothing more than four wheels, something that resembled an engine and a cardboard interior wrapped in recycled beer cans. At best, they were slow, uncomfortable and relatively unsafe. At worst, they were time and money sucking machines that could double as a coffin in a pinch. That is, if EMS couldn't cut you out after a metal-to-metal mishap.
Thankfully you can kiss those days goodbye. Today's econo cars live on a much different plane of existence. For less than $15,000, you can purchase a vehicle equipped with a bevy of safety features, decent pep and phenomenal fuel economy. Bottom line: We're talking better-than-basic transportation at a fair price. To help you narrow down what to buy, here are our picks for the best vehicles under $15,000.
