Here is my list so far

1. Infiniti G35C
2. Audi S4
3. Volvo S60R

I would like a new M3, but they are 50K or so MSRP.




1)i have driven a few g35's both coupe and sedan with the auto and the manual and i love the way they drive. the interior doesn't seem to be any better or worse than anything else. there is alot of potential there. on a side note, i have driven a turbo 350z and the damn thing absolutely would not idle. no throttle=no idle for some reason, and this was someones daily driver.

2)what is there to say? it is an audi s4. a nice car to be sure but it doesn't scream "gotta have it" like the tour did.

3)i completely and totally love the way volvo seats feel, im 5'8" and 200+lbs. if you are planning on taking any road trips this is a car to consider, imo.

the m3 is nice, but it is still a bmw which means funky placement of controls and expensive repairs.

if i were looking for a new sedan and i had some money to spend i would seriously consider a cts-v for a sporty option or a 300c hemi for a cruiser. sadly there are very few cars that interest me enough to have as a second to the tour and nothing that i would replace it with. even if it is wrong wheel drive.

after thought: just today i had the opportunity to examine the cargo area of a c5 vette and even with the top down there was enough room for a guy to pack for atleast a week or a man and his woman to pack for alteast a weekend.
