GT-Rs, even a used one for a 2012 model or newer, is more than 35 grand.  | Yeah, but if you view his pictures carefully, he never told you to get a 2012+ GTR  Quote:

For 35k tax in you would only be able to fit a base pkg in. Sport will be 37-38k and Sport Tech will be near 41-42 i believe.

You can get a Volvo S60 with AWD but the XC70 would be much better if he's going up the mountain with snowboard/skis. http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Volvo/S60...O&orup=1_100_5
That, or a 9-3 turboX

Thanks everyone for your advice. I'll talk to my co-worker about the WRX tomorrow when he's at work. Solid choice of car.

My co-worker told me yesterday that he bought the used Beemer 228i X drive coupe. I was shocked after he told me about the purchase because the car was rebuilt. Anyways, he says that his buddy, a mechanic, did a full inspection of the car. The only damage to the car was to the fender and hood. Engine, suspension, electronics and switches etc are fine.
I hope that he didn't buy a lemon.

He wants to go to the ski hill so he bought a 2 door BMW with an added front spoiler, because it's AWD?

Yeah, I didn't understand the logic behind buying the Beemer 2 series with the X drive if he's driving it to a ski hill. 
He's a Fob though. Maybe he's stuck on that mentality of "ooh, I bought a German ride, a Beemer, at a bargain price".
He can't get enough of that Beemer "prestige factor"?
Beemers and Mercedes are a dime a dozen as a daily driver among many Asians in the Lower Mainland .

The only thing I hate about the new 28i lineup is the engine. BMW sports coupes should never come with a 4 cyl turbo. Its just weird. Doesn't sound and feel like a BMW should. The 235i is nice but then again I don't want an inline 6 turbo. I was very happy with the inline 6 na on my e82

I vote for 3000gt... cant go wrong with 90s japanese muscle... low depreciation and may actually swing up in coming years if kept in good condition. Like that red one posted up on page 1.
Assuming the person has cash..
probably get a nice example for 10-12k... add 5k for tasteful mods (wheels etc)... and have 5-6k for maintenance for the rest of its life. Save that extra 15k cash for life... If you need to sell the car you wont be losing much.

37k maybe. Not enough stock for any dealers to sell at anything less than MSRP.

A 2015MY write off with only hood and fender damage? 
I know BMW shit can be expensive, but it's not THAT expensive. I'll guarantee a lot more was replaced than just a hood and fender.

Some people... | I have zero experience with it, but if multiple airbags deployed, I could see that driving costs through the roof with minor damage.
