I came across this interesting infographic comparing the approximate costs of buying a new Camry vs. a used one. Thought this would be as good a place as any to share it. Does Buying a Used Car Save You Money In The Long Run?

 

Interesting post.

My two cents is the 2008 and 2015 are not that far apart in some ways. Both cars can use synthetic oil for longer change periods and have timing chains not belts (no belt change)

Insurance can be much cheaper on an older car. In some states tabs for cars are based on its value, te used car being cheaper as it value goes done. Then add in sales tax at 8 to 9% on a new car (ouch!).
