I sell cars at Carmax, I've driven every freakin car on the road.

Couple of questions you need to be able to answer:

1. How long are you going to keep it?
2. How important is it that your car is under warranty?
3. Import/Domestic?

One thing I would be very weary of is 'older cool cars'. Old BMW's, Old Mercedes, High Mileage Tahoe's...stuff like that.

Are they cool cars? Yep. They may run great too. But your asking for trouble with any car over 60K miles. Unless it's a Honda, Toyota, or Nissan.

Not just are you going to have more frequent repairs, but they are going to be insanely expensive.
