    This is like walking into a shoe store and saying "shoe me a shoe"

    Or going on the internet and asking people to tell you what they enjoy and why. Not what you like and enjoy.

    Oh, wait. You are doing that.


    Dude - go drive them, and buy one YOU like.

    IS350's and 335's are both good choices.

    So you are looking for a used one?

    2 door, 4 door?

    2 seats, 4 seats?

    what have you driven so far? What do you like, don't like about them?

    So what you want is a $40K sports/luxury car that doesn't use a lot of fuel, isn't very powerful and has four doors? How confused you must be.

    I would split it into two cars, one sporty and the other a daily driver or simply buy something off Sugarphreak's list.

    Add insurance, age and record matter, premium fuel and out of warranty repairs can all add up. New v used....the list is endless.

    OP, all the cars you had mentioned will average 10-13l/100km for fuel consumption. Keep in mind that anything "luxury" will require a minimum of a 91 octane.

    What about a BMW 328i if you are concerned about having too much power and fuel consumption? It still is a great car to drive

    Last question, how important is AWD to you or did you just want a RWD car?

    I'd also consider an older Audi A4.

    Just be prepared for the servicing cost. Expect to spend several hundred every time to take it in. With would be the same for an of the cars mentioned in this thread!
