7 – Acura TL (2004)
If you’re set on getting a higher level of luxury for your 5 grand or less, think outside the box and consider a TL from Acura. This car was the cat’s meow among premium cars in the early 2000s, and given the legendary reliability of that brand’s products in that era, you’ll be making a safe bet. As a bonus, you’ll benefit from a higher level of equipment, for example heated seats and a navigation system, circa 2004! Happy hunting…
