I went with a new 2013 Honda Crosstour AWD for the hatchback versatility, regular gas, and really low OEM parts prices for myself (ex 1975 99LE Wagonback, two 900 and two 9000's).
My wife (ex 9000) went with a 2014 CPO Mercedes C300 4matic. We purchased it a year ago with 13,000 miles on it with an excellent Mercedes warranty. There are excellent CPO buys out there as people continue to lease cars. We focused on CPO BMW's and Mercedes. Some 2 year old cars had less than 10,000 miles on them! Even an AMG with 7,500 miles!
I really like the C300 Interior, handling, and build quality. The interior materials are high quality and reminiscent of the SAAB's I have owned. I also like that the seats are perforated vinyl (MB Tex I think they call it). Just like many European taxis. I keep cars 10 plus years and leather just does not hold up even with leather treatment 3-4 times a year.
My daughter (ex 900 Vert) took dad's lead and just purchased a CPO 2013 BMW X-3 with 26,000 miles.
My son (92-X AERO) will get my 2013 9-5 AERO and plans to use the 92-X as a track car.
