I need help deciding what car to buy 50k

Ok, i know i might sound like a jackass with the economy being so crappy. But i have been broke my whole life, every car i ever had has been from a dead grandparent of mine. I have rocked a grand marquis and a buick.
Now i have finally made it big. I have 750$ a month to spend on a car with 10k down.
I have never been a car guy because i could never afford it. Now i can.
I need some real suggestings on what is the best car for 50k.
I just want something that is relaible fun to drive and awesome.
If you had 50k to blow, what car would you get? I have 2 kids, but i also have suv that the mom drives.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. also i will give you free legal advice if you need it.

No, you don't sound like a jackass. Unfortunately I don't have 50k to blow this month so I can't answer your question, but I do appreciate your offer for free legal advice, what law firm are you with ? and what's your area of expertise ? in case I may pursue your offer someday.

Re: I need help deciding what car to buy 50k

It depends on your taste in cars. I prefer European cars. I've had 3 Jaguars, and, now a Mercedes Benz GLK350 4Matic SUV. It's very well built and drives like a sports sedan. Wife and I both enjoy taking trips in it. I've taken several Lexus models on test drives, but, they just didn't impress me. We've also test driven BMW's, but, found the Mercedes more comfortable for us.

Compact 35-50k
Midsize 50-75K

50K? This one.

But you'll have to save up for a couple of months.
