The IS is knocked out, also added a wild card. Saab won by a large margin, but in the jalop kind of way. Looking for the best all arounder that you would spend your hard earned $$$$$ on.

not that specific example, but a 2009+ BMW 328i sedan with 3 pedals.

They all come with manuals in the glove box.

CTS because it's probably the nicest car on this list. And it has the great 3.6L V6 rather than the 3.0L unit. RWD too. Though the color combo is kinda boring.

Still pushing my budget. Wouldn't sleep at night knowing the future maintenance costs.

Didn't look to hard at it. Is it wrong I'm more attractive to slightly newer 3.o awd.

Logansteno: Bought a VW? > GeorgeyBoy
11/04/2014 at 22:47

The 3.0L isn't terrible. AWD would make up for the slight performance loss in my mind.

Either way, the CTS gets my vote.

I drive an '07. It's good. The N52 inline 6 is a great engine. No major issues, and it's been very reliable.

I still vote for the Infiniti. Pretty nice to drive, comfortable, plenty of power, and stupid reliable.

Every Cadillac (used, for sale) that comes into my shop is a steaming pile of cheap shit that needs a stupid amount of work. And most of the used cars we get in are decent, minor repairs and some maintenance. The Cadillacs are usually falling apart and pissing oil. That being said, we don't get a ton of them, so my experience is quite limited. But I did work for Infiniti for a bit years back, never made much money there because there wasn't much to do and I suck at working on Asian cars.

Even more Saab...

Not the Saab. I have the same one but in blue. I wanna be the only saab 9-5 one.

I would vote this CTS, http://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/… Lets just say I know the guy that owned it. All of the service was done at the dealer that is selling it again. It was traded in because he bought a 2014 CTS. Plus it has All-wheel drive and the dealer gave $15,500 on trade in. I will say one thing, the car was in a slight fender bender when someone backed into him in a Walgreens parking lot, the dent was removed and the entire side of the car was repainted and is in remarkable shape. Even if you do not go with this CTS, the CTS is a fairly reliable car all things considered. The interior is decent and even after 85K miles there were no rattles that I noticed.

Saab is my only answer...

But if I had to answer for my top three it would be Saab, Infiniti, Caddy.

The Infiniti G35. I rode in that thing with my friend when his dad was driving that thing. Holy shit, that thing is AMAZING.

Lincoln All the Way. With the G35 as a far away second. Though it seem that link isn't working anymore or it has already been sold, so Lincoln.

Saab, Infiniti, or Buick. :)

I love it to death. The turbo 4 is e85 capable. No issues so far but be warned, last i checked, there were only 800-1,000 of these here in thr states so if it get hit, parts will be hard to find.

Get the G. Especially if it's a G37. They make insane amounts of power. Some of the most affordable horsepower around. It's an even better car if you can get the manual. The tiptronic in it isn't very good. Steering is a little meh as well, but it has endless power and lots of grip.
