Have always considered that. I dunno though. Definitely the cheapest horsepower available. SUV's were considered but I'm moving to Florida, so I don't know if that's the right approach, especially with no kids. When I lived in Buffalo, it was a much stronger tendency.

I live in South Florida near Ft. Lauderdale and rich Pemborke Pines is around the corner. You'll find Hummers and SUVs driving abound as much as the Beetle back in the day. They are everywhere. Just recently pulled up to a shopping plaza and counted SEVEN Different SUVs (the only cars leaving at that time) lined up at a red light exiting the plaza. I'm pretty sure this is a nation wide thing though.

Well I was going to suggest that, but people think the new one is ugly. I'm of mixed opinion on it.

Agreed, but just because a lot of people are retarded doesn't mean I need to be [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]. I understand SUVs if you have a family or live in a place that snows as much as my hometown, but for a single guy it's pretty stupid.

I get what you're saying. I always thought the BMW M3 Sports series was a nice car to drive around in; also it's one hell of a chick magnet. Prices are like 45k-55k depending if you get convertible or not. Look it up if you haven't see it before.

IMO the Boxster is pretty prag.

My boss just bought an M5, so he can fit 4 blokes, and 4 sets of clubs in it? The mind honestly boggles, I guess if you play golf this is your car.

I wish I could tell what you are saying so I didn't have to ask like an idiot. I feel so bad, so is that good or bad?

I have a Mustang GT right now. With $1500 of mods, I'm at 285 HP and 0-60 in roughly the same. For $25K less, lol.

I love the M5 and the M3. I'd love to end up with an M3, as I obviously can't afford the M5...but even the M3 is a bit pricey.

My mother owns a 330ci, and I've fallen in love with convertibles. So I might just have to save my money for the M3 vert.

Edit: Just looked at the M3 vert again on the website. Customized it modestly at $59,245. That is holding the #1 spot strongly right now. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to stop spending money for a while in order to be able to afford it.

I think a lot of the older clients dont like it, I have one and I think it is by far and away the best car I have ever had or driven, the looks have really grown on me as well and when it sits next to an old 5 series it just looks loads more modern and up to date.

I would love a new M5 pity I cant stretch to the £60-70k that it is though.
