Got a 2013 3.8 base for $16000. Former Enterprise rental unit just shy of 40k. Black on black in great condition.
Funny I rented one for new years in South Florida and was really impressed. When I accepted a new job that required alot of traveling (40k of driving a year), the car was on the top of my list. Buying used, I felt like this will be one of the lowest cost per mile full size luxury vehicle I can buy. The only car I think that could compare from a cost per mile standpoint (including depreciation) would be the Avalon. Front wheel drive and boring steered me away. Maintenance, fuel economy, and depreciation eliminates all the Euro brands, and Lexus/Acura/infiniti are overvalued when slightly used.
I've already eliminated the flying H from the trunk, wheel caps, and steering wheel. Couldn't stand it, was peeling them off within 30 minutes of getting the car. Debating on the hood badge. Got a bigger one from a '15. Like the naked look. So clean with the headlights and grill.
