14. 1996 BMW Z3 Roadster <$10,000
Suave and debonair are two of the classier adjectives that come to mind when thinking about the Z3. This is due, in part, to its introduction to the world via Pierce Brosnan’s James Bond in 1996’sGoldenEye. While you will not have a license to kill, the Z3 Roadster gives off the impression that you can handle yourself. The Z3 will, in turn, give you all that you can handle with a 2.8 liter, inline 6 motor, which became available with the 1996 model.
This roadster looks like the prototypical sports car, but since it was discontinued in 2002, there have been great advancements not only in aerodynamics, but engineering and technology. These deficiencies do not take away from the status boost the Z3 has attached to it. In fact, by choosing the Z3, it shows off your shrewd, frugal side as well as your stylish sensibility.

13. 2000 Chevrolet Corvette <$13,000
To find a turn of the century model year Corvette, you will be required to make due with a mileage heavy vehicle in order to get a cheap deal. However, considering that the C5 came with a 5.7L V8 engine that cranked out 345 horsepower, you should understand that this car was not built to sit idle. It was built to drive.
The Corvette name alone may add a few hundred dollars to the sales price. But isn’t that a small price to pay for the prestige of America’s iconic muscle car? 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds should be the numbers you care about when buying a used, 2000 Corvette.
