Choice keeps me away -- I suppose I could afford to buy new, I just can personally justify it to myself when "gently used" is good enough for me.

I have never bought a new car. Just doesn't make financial sense to me; I always buy at least 3 years old, let it take a good depreciation ding, and pay cash. Although my Boxster is the oldest car I have ever bought!

Also never had a lemon this way -- PPI is your friend, I've had a few that would have gone bad (including a Boxster I didn't pull the trigger on).
