4 doors, not boring, prefer RWD, 30K to spend.

Ideas? Would like to go with 2013+ but could go older for the right car.

A used 3 series bimmer would fit the bill. I would go for something like a 2011 in a 335i flavor to fit it into your budget. Could also go with a newer 228i.

hyundai genesis 5.0 R-Spec? granted that's in the large/full-size sedan category. CPO cars are ranging from 25-35k it looks like, depending on the year and mileage

I wouldn't get a BMW unless it had a 100k warranty. Don't know if CPO does that or not.

The Genesis R Spec is a fantastic car. It just doesn't have the wow factor in traffic. I might even opt for the just regular v8 genesis if you can save 5k. They suck up fuel though.
How about a 300 SRT8?

The front end of the CTS is damn ugly. I like the rest of the car.

300SRT8 seems to be over 30K? Well, unless you want 50K miles or something.

Found a 2013 Buick Regal GS 6-Spd with 20 miles on the clock.

20" wheels, sat-nav, sunroof, loaded. MSRP is 38.5K. What should I offer for this? Dealer said this car is a "Buick Brass Hat", what is this?

It was a Demo car- unsure why it only has 20-miles on it though - odd. Are they giving you a warranty start date of 2015?

Buick was offering 20% on top of dealer discounts for cars that were on the lots the longest - so $26-28K at most would be the offer as its a 2013.

Same car - MSRP $39,500 - brand new $29K - http://www.bonanzamotors.com/new/Buick/2013-Buick-Regal-2a8fb67d0a0a00de01c459505b48a6da.htm

It's possible it was more than a regular dealer demo. At one time brass hat indicated it was more of a corporate car, used for the new car show circuit, stuff like that. That may explain the low mileage.
