Help me buy a new car.

My beloved 2005 Mustang has reached the end of its life. 144K miles its time to move on. Going to start a new job with a commute across a long bridge over water. Going to miss it.


You help me decide. Point me in the right direction. Give me the great info that puts me in the right car.......I'll send $50 to the charity of your choice.

Criteria:
I want to spend between $30k - $40K.
Automatic
Got some style
Have to be able to fit in the car comfortably
Prefer a coupe


Right now I'm thinking new Challenger, Nissan 370Z, Mustang etc. Son is telling me to look at used Mercedes, Lexus etc.

What ideas do you have?

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Update 03/11/2015
It's a done deal. I've bought and ordered a 2015 Challenger SCAT Pack Shaker. 392 Hemi 6.4L, 486 HP, 475 toruque, 4.1 second 0-60 time. Has all the same luxury "stuff" as the BMW and Lexus's.

Last years "Shaker" models sold out in 4 days. I decided if I was going retro, go all in and went with the lime green 1971 Challenger remodel. Bumblebee stripe and the Shaker hood. I deleted the stripes on the roof and the hood. Will take 6-8 weeks for delivery. Dark wheels.

I gave $50 each to the charity of their choice to Bearcat and Miles. When Simply Red shows back up, I'll get his charity the money.

The Car arrived finally......

Wanted one. Serious value. Lots of performance not many dollars. I was a Pontiac fan. I enjoyed every one of the 3 I owned, even the shitty ass Sunfire I had. I was disappointed they shut it down.

If you are in the $40K range, I think you can pick up a Buick Regal supercharged or TDI. At least drive one.

No. I'm leaving town for a couple of weeks tomorrow. Didn't want to rush it. I need to find a 335i with regular seats. That Lexus looks sweet but its pricy.

I should temper my comment. You buy a Pontiac, you're not buying Lexus Mercedes BMW. But for my dollar, they were the best value for performance dollar. Mine were reliable, and the motors weren't worthless save the sunfire. It was worthless.

I had an 01 Grand Prix with the 3.8 and it was probably the best I've owned. The G6 with the 3.5 was a solid rig also. Regretted selling both.

I agree, take your time. It took me 3 months to decide (and wait for) the perfect Malibu to come along last year.
