just monday my aunt got a 2005 malibu ls with a v6, atx, power everything, including adjustable pedals, traction control, blah, blah, blah for 15000 plus tax, title and license.
edit- while it is not a luxury marque it is new, adult and comes in under budget. oh yeah, there is ever room to work in the engine bay.

CPO BMW - either a 3 series or my search showed a few higher-mileage 540i sedans  6-year/100k mile warranty, other ownership costs are not bad (if you ignore the cost of premium gas). Scott

Too bad image is so important. You could be a trend setter, get a NEW car with a 5 year bumper to bumper, 10 year powertrain warranty...
Azera. A really nice car. Really.

24 & change for starters & under 26 for the Limited - full sticker. You can certainly get a healthy discount on them... About 20 then add tax, etc.

not to argue, but how exactly are you gonna get one for about $20000? every contract i have seen come by my desk, i work at hyundai motor finance corp, has been over 25 not including financing. msrp is starting at $24335, ranging to $26885 and "MSRP excludes $660 freight, taxes, title, license and options. Dealer price may vary." taken right off the www.hyundaiazera.com website. admittedly though, the invoice for a base azera se is $21901.

Agreed, these are fun cars. I'd probably go with a Lincoln LS V8 first, though, just because it's so much more car for the money.
