First time car buyers don't have any car to sell.

True but that's not the majority. Anyway you can always buy something cheaper. I would go for something that's hail damaged or messed up cosmeticly as the price for those will be much lower

how much do you think one of those costs in 2023? I'll give you a hint, it's not $500 OBO anymore

... And then spend twice or thrice the buying price fixing random things that break in a car that spends most of its time parked at the mechanic.

Or don't? I would go for a car with a solid engine.

Solid engine costs extra. That's the entire point.
