Something easy on gas, accessible parts, reliable, simple, american as I live in america & parts are cheaper. I made a horrible choice buying a twin turbo audi a6. I rather have a ford focus over it. It depends what you're really looking for if you're looking for suggestions, ask yourself if gas, reliability and all the other factors will be a big issue.

Not American... but I want a 2007/2008 Hyundai Tiburon SE for about that price.
From an American company I'd be looking at a used Ford Fusion.

it's 4000 lbs not really performance but a luxury car. I don't need a luxury car most of the time. Impossible to pass through DEQ too..I need to find a gas leak in on of my fuel lines on top of the tank soon & that won't be much fun. I have worked/rebuild a few engines in my span and the audi is just a nightmare. Dumb germans, bad decision I wasn't ready to invest the time and $ into this 4000lb boat.
Lesson learned eh?

I got a Cadillac CTS. It's a fun car to drive. With that kinda money I think you could get a used CTS-V though which would be a funner car to drive.

i live in the south and have always had a truck. i wrecked my truck last month but my insurance is giving me a nice check (i could have never sold my truck for that much). lately i have been thinking that there is no point in having a truck, i rarely use the bed. i would like to go to the beach or off roading in my vehicle but in the end i will just fuck something up and its just not worth it. so having a big 4x4 is pointless for me. as far as gas goes anything at or around 20 mpg is fine. i dont want to buy anything with over 75,000 miles or that would be unreasonably high on insurance. i was just trying to get some ideas...
edit wow you guys replied quik...

I wouldn't spend that much on a car tbh. much better things to do with 15 large IMO. I would rather spend a third of that on say an old jeep(inde-fucking-structable), or a small motorcycle and beater car for inclement weather. Then spend the rest of the money on vacation and life experiences as opposed to material luxuries like nice cars, but that's just me.
