Suggest a car please

My budget is around $15K CDN (about $10K American) and I'm looking for a car, V6, around 3.0L (give or take 0.5L), no hatchbacks, and it's gotta look nice. I'm not too concerned about power or speed. I"m currently running an '89 Probe, and it's working pretty good, with small faults. But it's got over 200K kilometres on it, so it's time to change it. Thanx alot.

I was thinking of buying a car 1 or 2 years old max because I don't want to have to repair it constantly. I want a car that I will have no worries taking on trips. Know what I mean?

I guess with $10k you can buy an used 2001 or 2002 Ford Taurus with the nice 200HP 3.0L DOHC v6, if you don't mind a big car, or a Ford. Newer Ford Tauruses are pretty reliable and the build quality is reasonably good. Repairs and maintenance are cheap compared to its Japanese or German counterparts. Whether it looks nice or not is up to each individual's taste... I personally think the current Taurus looks better than the current Camry.
