Well i never said i was going to give up my 335!

However, one day a E60 M5 or e90 M3 would be fun. Something about those NA engines with an exhaust.

I have a growing need for a daily driver SUV so something in that space that doesn't suck would be nice. Any ideas? I could always take over my wife's '14 GC Overland Hemi and get her something like a Tahoe.
I had a 1M and got an itch for a Rubicon. Picked up a 2013 Rubi 10A and may have went a bit overboard with the mods. $23 grand later....





It couldn't even spell driving dynamics, so needless to say I'm now in an e92 M3. Much happier.

You guys have some staggering spare money to play with. Between the mrs and myself we make over a quarter mil a year but I still cannot justify the expense of some of the cars you guys are listing.

I drive an 08 Saab Wagon and the mrs a base X1, next car likely to replace the X1 in a year. Maybe it's the cost of living and tax rates? I dunno, but I know I don't have that kinda cash to just splash around and i'm pretty careful about knowing where the money goes.

Same boat. Drove a 4.3 Vantage and fell in love, can't wait to try the 4.7. They couldn't look better if they tried.

More I think about it, less I see any cars that actually pull at my heart. unless I look at used ones.

only STI is there. nothing in automatics. New 335i, s4.. meh.

Maybe Golf R.

I'm really considering picking up a Porsche 964 / 993 while I wait for the prices of the F82 M3 to drop.

I have a modded '07 328i w/142k miles. I'd like to keep it as long as possible, at least 5 more years. If I got totaled today, I'd be downsizing to one of the following in order of price:

VW GTI
Ford Focus
Honda Fit

In five or more years, who knows what will be available and interesting?
