What to do with 10K?

I traded in my CL-S a year ago for a new Odyssey. My in-laws van broke down for the umpteenth time, I mentioned to them that they should take my Odyssey and just pay the payments, and give me cash for a new car. They just called my wife and told her they'd give us $10K. Now i need another car, was thinking of putting the 10K down on either:

a> used BMW 530
b> used 330CI
c> New MDX
d> ????

gimme some ideas ladies and gents...

peace

Do you still need a Van/SUV?

MDX is a nice choice if you do.

Whoa ... 2002 530i w/68000km @ C$45k?! What a rip-off. Get a new TL for that price. MDX would be a nice choice too, if you need the 'utility. Isn't there a facelift for the MDX due soon???

BTW G-unit, what do the boys at TAC think?

If you need a midsized sedan; Acura TL

If you want a nice sports sedan (I4); Acura TSX

If you want a nice sports sedan (6); Lexus IS350

If you want an SUV; Infiniti FX35

Used Bimmer; depends on what you want

I'd go with the TL. I'm not a big fan of the BMWs. I think they're way to overpriced for what you get. I simply don't believe in paying that much for a name. To paraphrase something I read on a different thread today "BMW's are the Ferrari of narrow minded people". Take it for what you will.
