Default I need a car v.pleasehelp

Last week I was offered and accepted a promotion / relocation opportunity within my company, which will require me to purchase my first car in 4 years. Ideally, I would buy the car outright but am not in a position to do so. Based on the offer I received, I would be comfortable with a $350/mo car payment. I am amenable to leasing, purchasing a new vehicle, and purchasing a 1-2 year old vehicle with a warranty. I will be meeting with customers, so I need a car that states "young professional". I would prefer to put down as little money as possible, but have cash should I need a down payment. I am willing to travel within the east coast (Philly to FL) to pick up the car, should a can't-pass-up opportunity present itself.

Any suggestions?

I think the 3 Series or IS are good suggestions.. TSX maybe..

Since you're open to leasing, check out www.swapalease.com You can get a good deal on leases that people can't handle anymore.
