What about the last gen Toyota Celica GT-S? Reliable, good fuel mileage, look good. They are very light, with good handling that doesn’t understeer like most FF cars. Also, the 1.8 VVT-i w/ lift is a mean engine. Very similar to Honda’s V-tech. Redline is well above 8k. Getting the GT-S is a must; the GT only has 130 horsepower; the GT-S has 180. The entire 50 horsepower gain comes on at once, at around 6,000 rpm, when the “V-tech” valve program kicks in. Tremendously fun, and reasonably quick. Just make sure to get a 6-speed version; the automatic is a 4-speed with tall gearing that really hurts the performance. The manual shift mode takes a good 1-1.5 seconds to react as well. Don’t get the auto if you can help it.

As a technician in a Euro specialty shop, I can say without hesitation that anyone recommending ANY Jag, Mercedes, or Audi for 5k has absolutely lost their mind. Best case scenario: spend a fortune on parts and turn your own wrenches. More likely scenario: spend a bigger fortune on parts and labor at a competent indy shop. These cheap car challenges are fun, but totally unrealistic for most people.

Keep your head up man. Look at it as a blessing; you found out her true nature early on. Had she not been put in a position where she was forced to admit her infidelity, you would have been with this awful person for years, wasting precious time, money, and energy, only to have her likely leave you for another dude and take all of your money in the divorce. Luckily you don’t have children; that would be a huge complication, she’s likely get custody as the mother (and you’d have other dudes raising your child, and it probably wouldn’t have the best of childhoods) would leave you tied to her forever. Your probably still young enough to start over. Your in much better shape than a lot of guys out here, I promise. It’s gonna hurt real bad for a while and be tough to trust people, but go out have some fun, stay busy, meet some new people. Have a few not-so-serious relationships (don’t jump straight into another one), then find a good long-termer. You’ll be alright, it just takes time.

My son got an 08 328i for $3,500, with the 6 spd manual. 180k miles, but Super clean inside and out, black on black with window tint. Great service records (all common failure points done) and well maintained. Got an OBD2 scanner w/BMW software that has come in handy. So far have done the battery and starter; transmission and diff fluid changes. Had bolts come loose on the power steering pulley which caused the serpentine belt to rub/tear and proceeded to rip the wiring on the radiator fan, he caught it before it completely shredded the belt though (that can cause the crank shaft to suck it into the engine). DIY so about $600 (thanks FCP Euro), instead of several thousand $ at a shop. He also put on angel eye headlamp units and blacked out grill and side markers, which makes it look even sharper. Power isn’t crazy but it’s fine for having fun on the backroads. Handles great for spirited driving (compared to domestic/Japanese sedans in that price range). It’s not N54/55 power/fun/modability, but the N52 seems to be a very solid/reliable engine for fun daily driving and not nearly as much maintenance needed as the turbo engines. A lot of car for the money, as long as you’re willing to DIY most maintenance and repairs. Bilstein B8’s and lowering springs might be the next project.

I did…. about 10 years ago, were Always advertised as "doesnt start due to minor computer issues" actually, as i come to think of it, they were in almost the same price range as the BMW 840's with the same problem.

In February, I bought a 1983 Alfa Romeo Spider. A Pininfarina designed Italian sports car, with no rust and runs great, all for $4500. I drive it every sunny weekend and every time I’ve driven it I’ve gotten compliments from people on the street.

I was a little surprised how long it took to get to MX5, and then there were 5 of them. I bought my 1966 Plymouth Valiant Custom 200 for less than $5000CAN and I have driven it every day since June 2015. It isn't sporty at all, but it is classic and turns heads.
