It’s your graduation day. You’re wearing your freshly ironed graduation gown with a toga on your head. You’re having a great time with your friends, taking countless selfies for posterity’s sake. You receive your diploma, and all the while, you’re thinking about the countless opportunities that are waiting for you once you step out of the hallowed halls of your college campuses and step right into the real world. It’s a great time to be alive, at least until you wake up the next day with nothing to do. That’s when reality hits. You have nothing to do.

The real world can be a scary place for a new grad, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to let it swallow you. There are a number of ways to get you started in this new phase in your life. One way is to buy yourself a car. Unless you have money to spend, you’re not buying a new car, that’s for sure. Your student loans and credit card debt should be enough to scare you away from adding more debt to your name. If your purse strings are tight and you need a ride to get you around, the used car market is your best bet.

But in the event that you do have the means to buy a new car — a graduation gift, perhaps? — we’ve picked out ten new cars that you, or your parents, can afford.
