1. 2003 Jaguar X-Type 2.5- They want a little below $7,000 for it and it only has 75,000 miles on it and it has a sunroof, leather, wood trim and everything. V6 engine that makes 194hp. -I'm thinking HEAVILY on getting this . Color of exterior- Gray

2. 2002 Mercury Cougar- Not sure about this one since its a Ford especially but the body was perfect without a scratch. Only had about 80,000 miles, base 4-cylinder, Grabber Green Metallic color. want $4,999 for it.

3. 2005 Nissan Maxima not sure what the price is on it yet, had around 102,000 miles, gray color.

4. 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer- 87,000 miles, new tires, tan color, they wanted right at $8,000 for it a little below.

5. Chevrolet Impala or Malibu if I can find a good one again.

6. Saturn Vue

Thats my options right now just curious to see what you guys think and recommend?
You realize the X-Type and the Cougar share the same basic platform (along with the Ford Contour and mercury mystique), the 2.5 is a ungraded version of the 2.5 170 HP found in those cars and is closest to the version found in the 200HP contour SVT.
