Best Used Cars

I'm helping my sister get a car for around 20-25k, and I have a couple of cars in mind. 1. 2006+ Lexus IS250 2. 2007 Infiniti G35 sedan. I was wondering if you guys have any good cars in mind for around this price range. She's also considering getting the new camaro.

Think BMW. 3/5 series are great cars that can be had for under <25K.

2009 c350 blk on blk
You will definatly get a c230 2007 model with all the extra's for about $24K. I traded mine in with only 20K miles on it and i got just under $20K.

Check the MB dealership websites and i'm pretty sure you will get a decent car for about$25k.

Another thing you could purchase a demo vehicle fm a MB dealer (vehicles used as loaners while your vehicle is being repaired).

Good luck

Both are pretty good options. Check out CarMax. You can actually find some early C300s in the 27K range...and I have seen some around 25K.

If she is gonna go with any BMW/Audi/Benz/etc make sure she gets some kind of extended warranty. Once the warranty expires any repairs/maintenance is going to be $$$$$

I agree 100%, If you cannot afford a brand new luxury why dont you go with a regular brand new car (honda, nissan, kia) and you'll avoid expensive bill from repairs in the future that your sister wont be able to afford either.
