Bought a 2009 Civic, making payments like a dog to pay it off early.
Always fancied a BMW to be my eventual perfect Daily driver, and a family member was wanting to sell their E90 to buy a civic. I just so happened to have a civic, so we did an even trade. The civic being a year old with 25k was valued very similarly to the then 4 year old BMW. I had my fair share of maintenance to catch up on because they didn't / expired warranty. But I like to think I got a good deal.
I'll be getting an X5 for the wifey when I'm more settled into the career. She can enjoy her Maxima till then.
