I also second Hambone w/BMW. Lease is the only way to ride a BMTroubleU. Lots of fun, when it isn't in the shop.
what the hell are you talkin about???

all cars in the original list are manual. even the accord can be a 6spd. quit riding the nuts off of the G35

I agree if he waits for the new model to come out. the new coupe concept is hot

if your not going to wait then get the TSX, they handling on them stock is pretty impressive especially for a FWD car. I'd also say the new lexus IS is pretty sweet too.

I really like the IS but I think it is slightly over priced. What about a Nissan 350Z?

I want a car that says "guy behind the guy and not pretentious". I love BMWs but if I get one, I am going to wait until I can at least get a 5-series.

if you really want one, just get it. holding back b/c of fear of image issues only reinforces the stereotype

350Z is fine if thats what youre looking for. not a bad car

get the Z if you really dig it. its a pretty sweet looking car with lots of power. Just get the HIDs and you'll be golden.

everyone and their mom has a z where i live...so i wouldnt like it too much. that and the lack of cargo/cabin space doesnt outweigh the performance virtues.

everyone knows by now that I'm a sedan guy. i have a coupe also so i know first hand the tradeoffs so i dont want to hear that sedans are for family/old men bs.
