I've seen some Bentley Arnages 99' go for $34-36k, with like 80k miles or so.

Ha, surely a bit outdated but if you find one in good shape, definitely better than any new car you can get for 34k!

Honestly I'm not sure if I would buy a 10 year old Bentley. I know the "buy in" price is tempting, but the technology would be outdated and the maintenance way too high to justify it!

But, it's a matter of personal taste, so to each his own...

The supercharged 07-08 RS4's seem pretty cool. Not sure of reliability, have to look into that more. And I believe they will start offering a supercharger for the S5, approx. $15k once they hit the streets. Then again, the RS5 is right around the corner....

Yeah, indeed that may be a bit too risky - but the 05 Arnage's are creeping in under 80k now and surely they will be more reliable and more updated.

Oh, CL65 - that's a nice buy under 70k, in fact you can get them in the 40's now for the older model. Really sweet car!

I would hold off on a RS4 with a supercharger... they have been blowing engines... not worth the chance in my book.

Car has to be $70,000 or less.

Used = e63.
New = c63 or Z06 :P
