First car goodbye💔

Yesterday I made a very hard decision to say goodbye to my very first car. It wasn’t what I was prepared to do that day but for over $3000 in repairs needed on a 2016 high milage engine, it was the only decision that made sense. Now time to look for a new car…Any suggestions or advice on car buying
