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......

Wow, that's pretty man. My wifey wants a purple Challenger with a KSU license plate holder.

I just paid the sales tax on my Lesbaru, and plates for two years. Love the new car smell.

Agreed. Only because of the retro heritage history does it work. Put it on a modern car like a Lexus, it would look like shit.

The tinting truly sets that car off. It just looks like those two colors were meant to go be together on that car. I got a shitload of compliments today at the car show. They encouraged me to enter the car shows. Updated muscle cars always do well especially when they have no mods on them.

Not a single factory swirl on the paint. No flaws either. I've been through 7 rain storms so far. Not a single rain spot on my car. That paint sealant that Garry Dean put on my car is fantastic.

Simply Red has decided that the $50.00 should go Chiefs Planet. The donation to the planet has been made in Simply Red's name.

Thanks for all your help in this thread Simply Red!

The M5 was dropped just a TAD! I'm unloading it in December for a smaller M4 or M3.

Sweet ride...Yeah..never buy new..ever. For $30K...you can find a $50-60k car with 40,000 miles. Let some other sucker eat the depreciation..

I've been thinking about getting out of the Porsche game and getting a M3....just my car is so unique. I see a few M3's everyday around here...I like the M-roadsters from 1999.

Meh, for that $20k, you get a brand new car under warranty and a maintenance agreement for ~4 years (and exactly the way you want it, which depending on the car & options, can be a lot easier)..... 100,000 miles on a $50k car = 50 cents/mile, or add 60,000 miles to a $30k/40,000 mile car = 50 cents per mile.

Of course, any number of options could be the best depending on the circumstances.
