Me too, that's rather limiting the options though

I certainly have no plans for the immediate future, but if I had to replace the zed right now it would be one of these:

> If I wanted to be "practical" I would go with a 335i Coupe (the rear seat would come in handy shuttling the kids around).

> If I wanted to go wild (plug your noses everyone) I would go with a heavily mod'd Mustang GT (not very practical for a daily driver, but a pure automotive-adreanalan rush).

> If I wanted to strike a balance, I would go with an M3.

All that said, the next car I am likely to purchase would be a replacement for my '99 Explorer (winter driver) - I am thinking about something like an RX350.

And since Giles opened up the can of exotic worms, the car I will own some day is:

Was given a drive in this one yesterday at VMax...totally awesome. Redlining at 8500, topping out at 179mph and grip and noise to die for. I've always had half an eye on one, but after yesterday my mind is made up. I WILL own one of these soon :thumbsup:
I'm sure they're awesome, but i think the rest of the Ferrari baggage would put me off.

You're not alone there, they look almost affordable the way they're depreciating.
