Yes, depends on what you want but also depends on your budget.

the 2003 will be the cheapest, the 2005 is arguable the fastest of the three, and the 2008 is the most refined. They're all a good choice.

Look for a IX. The SE is a very nice choice...


After the RS of course

definetly go with the 05 if ur leaning toward an VIII but if u want more luxury and a way bigger payment then get the X. i agree with 06rs though cause if ur gonna drop around 35k for the X ud be way better off gettin a slightly used IX for mid to upper 20's. the 4g is proven and a beast when modded. i would throw out the 03 and 05 though and just look for a nice IX MR or SE or get the X. gl bro
