My car is in the shop and I've been driving an Audi Q3 - it's quite nice. Mine is a discovery sport - also nice but more like $55k

How big? You're not really gonna get a luxury SUV new for under 35k out the door unless you're looking at a bare bones Q3, x1, or gla.

End of October is a great time to buy...dealers look to unload before new model years come out.

Newer model will always have one or two better standard feature IMO. But for a 45-50k new one, it will always depreciate around or close to 10k in 2 years in my experience.

I'd say certified pre owned Q5. Those are nice

I have a Grand Cherokee also and LOVE it. Could get that price at end of year. I bought mine the last day of fiscal (1/4) and got about 25% off brand new. But was a 15 in Jan 16. I

I love the new XC60 but depreciation is steep. I'm contemplating a new 4Runner or used Lexus GX.

This will probably ruffle some feathers but why are people referring to the Q3 as an SUV? Lol

Following because looking for SUV in same budget

Or a slightly used Q5.

Not sure why that made you laugh. Someone hit it while parked. Was perfect before then. 😥

New Q5 around 43k ish. or Acura RDX is around 40k ish. I think Q3 is around 35k ish or Lexus nx.

If you aren't set your mind on needing a new one, I'd go for a two year old to beat the depreciation.

M1- that’s what i am looking for like 16/17 model. Just wondering what’s a trade off in terms of technology in general

I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and it's nice, won't be able to get a new one for $35k though. Check out the Jaguar F Pace, I've had my eye on those.

A1- size wise more like GIc/x4 - 5 seater. Any one has comments on Volvo XC60?

Why Volvo? Are you over 50?

I'm kinda leaning Jeep Cherokee for that price range. However, if ya wanna push the price, go Q3, it is worth it. Or... Screw luxury, 35k is too cheap for anything good in that bracket. Get a Kia Sportage and put the extra 10k Into you're retirement, it'll be well worth it in the long run. Sportage is a great car, ignore that it's a Kia. Don't be dumb and buy a low tier luxury car for brand alone.

IBM 1- lol. what makes you that impression about Volvo. XC-60 is really cool ..btw most of super car owners are around 50 or above..

I have two job offers, one offers a salary of 61.5k and the other job offers an hourly rate of $27.65 with $41.48 for OT, as well as Sales Incentive Compensation Plan where the annual target incentive compensation is 42.86%. In other words, I could potentially receive quarterly bonuses that add up to around $24,650.
