Dont know if you like Toyotas or not but check out the Avalon... They are sweet cars. So comfortable and has some balls too. My buddys parents have one and the car is very nice. Good gas milage too. You can get a brand new 05 for 23k with warrenty and everything, fully loaded.

I just figured I'd be different and suggest something totally different then what everyone else has been saying. But if you really want, get a Evo or something similar.
