Is there a Luxo Sedan that has it all?

Thanks for the responses. All valid (although I'm scared of motorcycles). Drove the S550 today. Nice indeed but not enough difference to justify the price IMO or the trade. I'd love the S600 but that is out of the price range. I will try the 3 series coupe, A8 and maybe some other sedans and coupes but I'm thinking there is no perfect car. One needs a car for each type of driving. I'll check it out and let you know. Thanks again for the advice.

... for me considering either the A8 or 7 series is absurd. I test drove the entire class because I was considering upgrading and I found the 7 and A8 to be only MODERATELY comfortable, with for a very large luxury saloon is simply UN-Acceptable. And as with all Audi's, while the driving was more connected then the LS... it's handling didn't exactly justify the higher price tag and sub-par interior comfort. If you're looking for pure fun factor, the Mini is really a fun vehicle, but it seems you're shooting for something slightly more upscale (you mentioned the three series and the audi). If that's the case, I really would check out the 335i/335i retractable, it really does have an incredible engine. Also, try the Boxter/ Boxter S, I found that to handle better then almost any vehicle. The 350Z also rates high in fun factor and is low priced- however you might regret not going with something more upscale. This may be controversial since many people shun anything American made, but the Z06 really is AMAZING- I'm strongly considering that as my next vehicle purchase. As far as motorcycles are concerned, I don't blame you for fearing them, I've lost more friends/family then I'd like to admit to motorcycle accidents.
