The M45 is gonna be yesterdays car come April and the new M56
The Benz E is for grandmothers
and the 5 series is due for a revamp and it will cost u around 55k to get in a 535 with 4 wheel drive and loaded....

The A6 is sleek sophisticated and less common...the new 3 liter engine is efficient yet powerful and can be leased for less then 650 and you can buy it and it hold its value well.

any real driver wouldnt want all wheel drive. just adds weight. go for the new beemer 5 and get some winter slicks.

Well then I recommend it for all the fake drivers out there

...I drove it and loved it and think its very classy.

The 5 is alright, but a little more and I think its due for a revamp.

I'm not sure I understood that question. Starting MSRP of base model is $49,345

Any owners of '05/'06 Honda Odyssey's here?

Wondering what you think about these models.

A dealer who seems honest tells me they last very well.

Please excuse my ignorance but...
Do you think one with ~150k miles for ~$5k is a good deal?
What about ~230k for ~$3k?

I never imagined buying used cars this old, but the current market has gone completely off the charts.

I welcome general thoughts on this matter as well.

TIA

I would take the former over the latter.

I'm not convinced the 150k would be better than the 230k.

I happen to think that a Sienna with 344k miles is the best option.

Not sure where u located, but you can get them on craigslist for cheaper.
Also, once u pass the 200k mark, there's no way to tell how much life u have left. No mechanic can tell u. Depends on how well the car was maintained.
