Honestly if you are doing any kind of budget stretching, this is about the best I've got to offer for you before I quit beating the TL drum. 07 Type-S with 100k miles for $14k:

This one looks a little worn around the edges, maybe it had a carseat in the back or something? Even if it was completely beat on that motor and transmission are seriously beefy (Type-S came with transmission coolers), you can't go wrong for $12k:

It is absolutely still one of the best daily drivers I have ever owned. Great handling for a FWD car (was actually faster around the track in a Japanese comparo mag than the G35 and IS350), 286hp, Brembos, upgraded suspension / sway bars, heated leather, navigation, sunroof, Bluetooth and voice controls, got decent gas mileage. J-pipe and precat deletes nets another 25-30 hp. Sounds great, looks great. You could put another 150k miles on that car and not blink an eye.
