Top Gear had a segment on buying used vs new. First, they tried out a brand new 7000 Pound ($15,000 US ?) econobox Toyota, that didn't even have carpets and drove like a dog! Then, they went out and tested used luxury cars that were selling for the same price. One was a Boxster, which they loved, subaru WRX, a Jaguar, even a Bentley turbo.
They eventually bought a BMW 850 series and a top end Mercedes (can't remember the model but it cost 90k+ Pounds new.) Bothelooked flawless in and out and drive like champs. They are going to do a long term test of the cars.
So yes, its a no brainer, buy used.
