I like buying used cars with a little manufacurers warranty remaining. It gives you a chance to get everything sorted and 100% without having to spend any money to fix unknowable issues. Therefore, I only considered newer cars with warranty (esp. Certified warranty).

I bought mine at the Lotus/Porsche dealer in Richmond, VA. I just got lucky ... although I don't think I really got a bargain. More importantly, I got the car I wanted in the color I like with the equipment I wanted. That's not always so easy when you're looking at used inventory.

I'd start with autotrader.com and narrow the search by year, mileage, and certified cars (or cars new enough as to still be under warranty).
