Your warranty is gonna be up soon and your gonna be looking at somewhere between $1200-2000 for a GMPP warranty(depending on time/mileage terms) if you want to stay covered..... $36K come next July is gonna be pricey for an 05 (by then I would assume your mileage is gonna be up into the 25K range). You would be better off just leasing a new one then buying out unless they will negotiate the buyout price down at least into the lower $30K's
You could also look for a used 2007 that is priced in the mid $40K range.... the 06 and newer models have a 4 year 50K warranty. You definately have some options but I would carefully weigh them if I were you.

Good Luck in whatever way you decide to go.
