I would go with the ones listed in the classified section of the paper or Ebay if I want to save some money and take the time to do extra research in the background of the used car. The nice part about buying a used car from a classified ad is that there's room for negotiation of the price, whereas in a dealership you don't necessarily get that kind of luxury.

There are two options to what you want to do:
1) Go certified and you can actually get a car that's reliable and still have a warranty on it, which I don't know if you'll ever use.
2) Get a private seller and purchase the car outright from them.
Now the question that you should be asking yourself is: Do I know the seller or the car well enough that I wouldn't need a warranty. I've been driving nothing but Toyotas ever since I got my license, and I've been raised in Toyotas ever since I was born, so I can see that they're pretty reliable, unless you get a car where the owner abused it, but when I mean abuse, I mean he had to really downright abuse it. I have friends that abuse their Toyotas and it still runs perfectly till 200K miles on the car. So in the long run, research, research, and more research on what the car's history is, that's what you should make your decision on, even it's a C.P.O. car, I would still check out it's past.

Car: 2001 LS430, no extra options (purchased in 2006), 60k miles, excellent condition
Price: $21,000
Car's great, I love it. I purchased from a private owner, the nice things about buying used luxury cars like this is a lot of people that are selling them really did a good job taking care of them, keeping service records, etc., so it is definitely possible to find some great cars.
