why? i dont know why. i guess the GS spoiled me with the comforts and room of a 4 door and the ability to take on so-called sports cars. and its not just a weekend car...........im sure i will drive it to work at times. and i dont even wanna think about what the patients would say if i pulled up in an NSX or 911. hell, some of 'em *****ed about the plasma screen that i put in the office!!!!! besides, youve seen me, im too big for a small car. and ive only gotten bigger since. you shouldve seen me trying to get into an Exige

funny you guys should mention the M5. found one today. its black/black with nav. looks great on the outside. interior leaves a bit to be desired. its an 03 with around 50k miles. dealer wants $42K. i will pick it up tomorrow morning on the way to work and the dealer is going to let me keep it all day. amazing what some slacks, loafers and a butter-smooth, monotone silk shirt will do i will report back tomorrow evening. could this be my new steed???? thanx for all of the help, folks...

If you want a sedan, I say pay the extra $10k and get the S55....it's about as exclusive as you can get and is faster than the M5, CTSV, etc.

M5 rocks, but the nav sucks rocks especially the CD based one of a few years back.
