Elite, help pick a car for me!

Stipulations
-$15k>
-rwd if possible
-no sports cars, coupes, or convertibles
-6 cylinder or more
-manual tranny if possible
-95 or newer
-must be able to fit 4 5'10.5, 190 lb doods comfortably
-not concerned about how fast it is in the 1/4 or 0-60
-relatively inexpensive maintenance/insurance rates

first choice was a crown vic/lincol towncar, then an infiniti q45, but the q45 seems like it would cost me more to maintain since parts would be expensive, and also uses premium gas. this car will be an addition, not a replacement. a weekend car, if you will

A Nissan Pick Up truck. . .

Id go for a buick century. Trust me on this. For that kind of money you can almost get a new one. Its a big midsize and it goes well without being too powerful, factory stereo is great and they are solid and reliable as heck Ive driven a dozen of them since '97, when I drove a lot of rentals.

A Nissan Pick Up truck. . .

I already have a nissan pick up truck. my daily D, has 155k miles, and I am pretty sure it would go for more, but I just want something nice, also it wouldn't hurt to have two cars in case one breaks down.

 

[2Thick]

Infiniti I30 or Maxima

[the People's Champ]

if its a weekend car why dont you want a sports car, you say manual if possible, but your thinking buick? you know you could get bmws for that price right?

I want a weekend car, I don't want to have to put anymore mileage on my truck. I dont want a bling bling car. I didn't say I wanted a buick, anabolic had suggested that.

tuc biscuit - we dont have caravelles here in the states

[Parabellum]

How about the Chevy impla or the monte carlo.

 

[the People's Champ]

I don't want a honda simply because they are just easy targets.

ajtomasi - 99+ cateras? how much do they run? I know cadillacs have the shittiest resale value, what is the reason why?

nite owl - 95-97 Lexus LS400. are these under $15k? what about insurance?

Soobs are sporty, and almost rare enough(minus the wrx) to be found on the road by someone of my demographic. will look into that...

thanks for the suggestions so far!
