hey, search on this site using the advanced search and put in your budget. You'll get a pretty good idea on what's possible to buy.


Advice:
- look for few owners (preferably 1)
- look for privately owned (company cars are normally abused)
- look at service history, any accidents, etc

Good deal is to buy directly from the seller privately. These are fast moving items so the price discrepancy is not too large in the market. Maybe 3-5k max. If you buy from a dealer, they will probably make 1-3k on this. The margin is not much higher unless the dealer does a good job when buying it.
