Four doors and 15-20k??? I'd go for a 2000 IS300 I've seen IS's in that range. Four doors, good price, looks nice!

I'll post again, because I find the IS300 hard to beat considering it's a Lexus and in the price range your looking!!!

Four doors, nice interior, reliable, Lexus, priced competitive!!!! Can't beat an 00-01 IS300 for 15-20k.

Other alternatives would be a newer GT Mustang... low 20's and I'm sure you could swing a deal on a new one. I called a dealer the other day, just investigating on the SVT's performance... not that I was interested but I wanted to assure myself it was a low 12 car, it is... The salesman kept calling me, he mentioned he would cut a deal this and that.. Maybe a newer GT might be the way to go if you can swing a deal.

I'd go with the IS300 though. A few buddies have them, they're nice.
