The CX-7 should come in under that price, and you should be able to find a two year old MDX with low km's for less than $35g US. You might be able to get one of the new Touaregs with a V6 for that price if you look hard enough for an 06 still kicking around a dealership (look for the 06 or newer though as the 05 and older V6 was underpowered for the vehichle and the mileage sucks considering how powerless it is). I like the looks of the Touareg myself and think it's more than manly enough.....but at the end of the day the Toyota was cheaper, better on gas, and has a rock solid record of reliability behind it. Plain and simple that vehichle suited our needs better, and I'm not as concerned about driving a manly vehichle as I used to be. Besides I still have my convertible that I can drive for those two months of summer I get.
