Doug, look into a facelifited 2008-2011 ML63, they are pretty cheap on the market, 20-30K. Definitely get a CPO and the extended warranty for 5Kish—our 2011 ML350 Bluetec has so many issues—such as puking oil, and soft roller bearings.

Or get a 2005 G35, straight pipe it, plasti-dip it, and you have the coolest car in…
