Soon after I scrapped my first car, I picked up a 2000 maxima for $6k in 2006. I held on to this for a solid 4 years before it started randomly stalling, a problem nobody seemed to be able to diagnose.

In 2010 I picked up my first luxury car, a 2008 Lexus IS350 for $27k. This car was smooth operator.... butter smooth transmission and 3.5L V6 which, for the time, was so quick.
