    Right, but without the Lexus name. Avalon is a mission president's car.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      Infinite's are what you buy when you want nice luxury but don't want to stand out at church. A fellow Oregonian here has an Infiniti and he could drive anything he likes.

      In that price range I submit a 2014-16 Nissan Maxima. Can't go wrong.

        Why do you hate Acura?

                I've been checking out the Volkswagen CC. It has some nice features and looks pretty decent.

                  You're just bursting at the seams... you might as well devote a whole thread to super cars and their CS owners.

                    Shut up. It was under $28K. Brand new.

                        Whoa. Way too risky. You might get called into a bishopric.

                            I've enjoyed my A6 wagon. Maintenance hasn't been horrible. It is great in the winter but is also fun to drive when snow isn't a concern. It only seats 5 comfortably and as my kids are getting bigger the back seat is less comfortable.

                              I've really enjoyed my 328 despite DDD constantly attacking it. It's really fun to drive and I bought it CPO so I still have 6 more months on the warranty even though it's been paid off for 18 months. Gas mileage isn't great but it's generally above 22 mpg around the city, which isn't bad for all the time I spend at red lights and in traffic. I paid within your price range for it and got it with 12k miles and one year used.

                              I've considered trading it in and getting a mid-sized truck (Colorado or Tacoma) but I like the car too much to get rid of it. I'm a bigger fan of the older 3 series (mines a 2011) as the newer ones just look different and some come with a v4.
