Default I'll give you one guess... :)

I'm in the process of unloading my 1997 BMW M3.

New baby (human kind, not car kind) dictates that hard to enter rear seats on a 2DR are not going to cut it.

Looked, looked, and looked, and finally bit the bullet to get the IS350 w/ Sport. I had been debating it for months, then recently saw a silver 350 with Sport and ML which was what I'd end up ordering anyway. The sport set up makes a big difference (I don't feel like f'ing around with mods on my driver).

BMW's have just gotten too slow, too heavy, too expensive once you option them out, and the interior is lame on the new 3's.

Too bad.

Maybe I'll return to BMW with I can swing an M5 or can go back to 2DR land...

My 06 IS350 replaces my 04 Black IS300, which replaced my 02 Red IS300 (accident). Went in for my 20K service on my 04, test drove the 06, ordered one. End of story. This the last one for a while, at least I hope. hehe
