I Need Used Car Recommendations

So I live in Chicago, and my 2008 Volvo S80 was recently totaled in a hit-and-run while parked on the street. I loved that car deeply, as it had a very smooth ride and decently responsive steering, as well as a very comfortable all-leather interior. Additionally, it only had 37k miles on it. My insurance is paying out a decent amount above the value of the car, so my question to you is: what used car would be a good choice for me under around $13,000? I'm looking for something similar to my S80, preferably with low miles. Thank you in advance!

    Well if you want something similar (competitor) to your S80, you might consider a Mercedes E350 or Honda Accord EX-L.

    Can’t argue either of those. That said, I would wonder what a used S80 would cost?

    An S-80 can be nothing but trouble as the miles increase. Nice cars but troublesome and very expensive to repair. Can't go wrong with a loaded EXL Accord!
