One of the best way to get a cheap car if you are running short on cash is to buy government seized cars. The federal agencies regular hold car auctions to sell these cars at dirt cheap prices.

These seized cars are often confiscated from criminals and drug dealers. They are kept under investigation and once it is completed, they are sold of in seized car auctions. Because of the high cost of maintaining and keeping these cars, the agencies rather sell them as fast as possible through seized car auctions.

That means government seized cars are often priced way below the market value. In fact, you can buy a seized car for up to 90% off the market value price. And there is always an ongoing number of them on auction, so if that dream car you always wanted to buy does not appear for auction, be patient.
