get a 2005 BMW 5 series (used ) it has speed, style, and comfort.
i work at Town + Country BMW and a 2005 BMW 5 series ( used) or a 2006 BMW 3 series is a great car to get for $40 000

how come everyone is ignoring the Charger, it has looks, power (with the 5.7 or 6.1 hemi) costs around 40 g's, and did i mention looks?
