Vehicles Under $15K

Imagine cruising through downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan, or over to East Grand Rapids in a solid, dependable pre-owned ride that didn’t cost you a fortune. Maybe a compact SUV or fuel-efficient sedan that fits your daily habits—commuting, errands, local trips to Rockford, and budget.

That’s exactly what our vehicles under $15K at LaFontaine Lincoln Grand Rapids offer. Whether you're looking for something practical, efficient, or easy to maintain, this range helps you find a vehicle that suits your lifestyle without stretching your wallet.

Search Our Selection Under $15K

When you search our selection under $15K, you’ll see an assortment of cars and small SUVs in that under-fifteen-thousand-dollar range. Each listing shows mileage, condition, vehicle records, and a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report if available. Those reports give you mileage details, past service records, and any collisions or title incidents. So if you’re browsing from Grand Rapids, East Grand Rapids, or Rockford, MI, you get a clear view before committing.

Each listing clearly flags mileage, number of past owners, and service history when available (via CARFAX). That helps you pick with confidence—and know if the car was maintained regularly or spent most of its life locally around the area.

Navigate Our Pre-Owned Inventory

Digging deeper into the full “Pre-Owned” inventory page, you can filter by price, mileage, and features. Want under $15K? Set that price limit. Want leather or sunroof? You can toggle those filters. That way, you narrow down to cars that fit your preferences, whether it’s low miles, fuel economy, or certain amenities.

You can also filter by model or vehicle type—even if you aren’t naming Lincoln models, you might target sedans, crossovers, or hybrids. Setting mileage limits helps you avoid high-mileage vehicles that might need more maintenance down the road. And feature filters—for things like backup camera, Bluetooth, or heated seats—let you see only cars that match your comfort expectations.

Tools to Finance Your Pre-Owned Model

Once you find a car you like, our tools to finance your pre-owned model help figure out monthly payments. The Payment Calculator lets you plug in price, trade-in value, down payment, and interest rate. It gives estimated monthly payments so you can see what fits your budget. That’s handy for planning whether it works for your monthly rent in East Grand Rapids or as a backup car for a student commute.

We also post used vehicle specials and special offers on selected pre-owned inventory. Those can include price reductions or financing incentives. Combine that with the payment calculator, and you can see how an offer might lower your payment or offer lower term lengths.

Did you know that, according to Edmunds, new cars lose on average 23.5 percent of their value in the first year and about 60 percent over five years?* That means buying a well-maintained used car under $15 K avoids that steep depreciation first-year drop—leaving more value in your budget long-term.
