Best new cars under 65k
Im going to be on the market for a new car soon, but Im having a bit of trouble deciding what to get into. It seems as if I've looked at all manufacturers already. Im looking to go from my current e92 335i to either a nice SUV or sport sedan. So far I was thinking of the new BMW X5, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Audi S4 (2016), LCI 340i (upon release). What would you get?

2015 Chevrolet SS, it comes fully loaded ( a lot of stuff ) and with the option of a manual. Can be bought for under $50k.
I'm sure you could find a leftover 2014 but then it doesn't come with Magnetic Ride Suspension nor a manual option. |

Golf R
Fiesta RS (coming to market soon) i'd probably have either of those over anything bigger and more bulbous. |

Care to elaborate? Isn't the 2015 m3 invoice at 59k + destination fee. Unless you are getting a stripped M3, I don't see how someone can get it for 65k OTD with tax.

I will go with my typical response. Get a used CPO'd car for around 62k (less than a year old with less than 5k miles on the clock if you can). Look for the one with the highest MSRP and you will be getting a great deal. Good luck!

+1, second owner usually gets best value, especially if the miles are that low

You could get a well-equipped Macan S for that kind of money. Best "small" SUV on the market, bar none.

European Delivery invoice is a fair bit less.

Under $65K is a lot of choice for nice cars. It's best that you nail down which segment you want (SUV, sedan, coupe, muscle, convertible, etc), then down to the model.
You can get two nice cars with $65K, that's what I did |

It is to the small SUV market what the Cayenne is to the mid size SUV market. The best performance & handling, best built and IMO the best looking inside and out. |

I would get new x5 or new x6 or the new 335i with M Performance Package. X6 more xD but for under 65k might be hard.
