Where do u live? I'm on my mobile so I can't see regions but here in MD I can find 08-09 G37 coupes arnd $20-22K with under 60K miles within a 200mile radius. We have a huge leased car to sell market bcuz of our job markets so lots of great deals out here. Thats my next move. I wld also say a 335I but the maintenance on those gets pricey really fast from the research that I've done. Plus for your price you wld need an older model with higher mileage. Good luck.

Sounds like good deals, but I live in the southeast region.


And for how new, like bmw e92, g37s, audi b7s. Like the newest models.

I heard that I could get good deals at car auctions. Anyone have experience with this?

1. You have to be licensed to go in car Auctions.
2. It's not the greatest deals.
3. Your kind of guaranteed there is going to be something wrong with the car, hence why it was there to begin with.

If u mean NEW as in 1-2 yrs old not happening. But 08-09 G37s yuppers. Maybe an 07 335I with high mileage for arnd $22K but they start at $25K for anything close to 65K miles. Take a drive if u want really good deals. I drove 220miles to pick up my G when I got her. Doesn't make sense to spend thousands of dollars extra for the same car. Just my .02

Was on my phone when I posted it. Definitely working now. Check em out, crazy good deals. We have so many ppl who only live in this area for a few years just to work for the govt, or contract, military... u name it. So these ppl lease nice as cars for a yr or 2 then return em with good miles and pretty much stock. Not to mention 2 of the countrys richest counties are here too. So they buy cars like clothes and then just get rid of em in a couple yrs. Benefits the average man like us tho !!

Lots of good deals i admit. But i cant see buying a slighty newer car with almost double the miles than the one he currently has. But if the priority is just getting a new car than more power to you.

If you are on a budget... buy something responsible until you are off a budget.....

If you dont like that... go with a 335i...

Or a Audi S4....
or heck, for $20k, you can pick up a 06-07 A4... and make it decently quick for under $5k.
You can find an E46 M3 (2004) for under 20k, I almost bought an '04 with 70k miles for 18k but it sold too quickly. A 335i is only E92 and newer, which is 2008+ I believe. 20k wont be nearly enough to get you one of those.

Honestly for 20k I would still get a G. Probably a little newer one but a G to say the least.

Once we are getting into the 35-40k range then I would look into something different.

2x on the STi. I'd get one of those if I could rid of my G35. Genesis are nice.. but they're in the same category as the G35/G37 in my opinion.

I noticed you said "model" and not "brand" so if you're planning to stick with Infiniti/Nissan, the IPL model would be next. 370s are nice too, don't know how much they go for but that'd be newer. The Nismos are the ones I'd go for.
