Default Well I sold my car today...What should I get next?

I wanted to sell it, but now that its gone, so its kinda sad. I ended up getting a pretty good deal. It was a 2000 Electron Blue Si, with about 50,000 miles on it, and I sold it for $20,000. So now i'm currently car-less for the moment. I'm leaving for Jamaica in about 5 hours so I will have a week to think about what I'm gonna do next. Any suggestions on a good car?? I have 20 from the si, plus about 7-8 grand in the bank, so I'm looking to buy something used for about 25-26 g's or so. I don't want to make car payments, so the next car has to be in that range. I just got pretty sick of the whole import scene in my area (ricers reving at me/trying to race me everyday) and thats why I wanted to sell the car. I was thinking more along the lines of something european now or luxury.
What I may testdrive at this point (all used 2000 models of course):
Audi S4
Audi TT
Lexus GS300
Lincoln LS V8
Saab 9-3 Viggen
BMW 3 Series

So what does everyone else think?? Comments? Suggestions??

Off she goes into the sunset.......

Wo! That was a GOOD deal. *Pat on back*
I'd lean towards a BMW E46 3 Series. Like this

Yea that bimmer is real nice!! My girlfriend's best friend's dad is selling a 2001 or 2002 BMW 330. Black with all Dinan parts. Dinan exhaust, chip, suspension, strut bars, intake, etc. Its practically brand new with under 10k miles. He wants around 35 or so for it so its out of my league.

35?? That's actually a pretty good deal, dang they let cars go for cheap down in Philly!! I'd take that 20 from the Si and take a loan for the rest.
