New car question...
My lease on the CLS is up in a few months. While I have enjoyed it for 2 and a half years, it isnt worth it for me to buy the car. Ive been trying to narrow the list down for a couple weeks now with no success. Any help you could give me would be extremely helpful.
The main cars I am looking at:
G35 sedan and coupe
04 TL
M3
C55
C6 corvette coupe
C5 corvette coupe
If anyone owns or is ordering one of these, I am very interested in hearing your opinion on what its been like.
Thanks guys

As for the MT I had one before and really enjoyed it until I started driving in traffic on I-4 everyday.

C6 all the way. 400hp for 42k ish. Plus Chevy redesigned the interior and it looks a hell of a lot better. I love the G35 and M3 but they're all pretty much at that price(g35 loaded) The downside is no back seat ![Smile](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

That list of cars is all over the map.. I'd first try to understand what type of car you want first, and then look at what cars fall in your price range.
You have both the C5 Conv & C6 Conv... If cost isn't an issue, I see no reason why you should get the C5 other than not wanting to wait for the C6.

M3 and the vette have always been my favorites but the pictures of the C55 are unbelievable.

i would go tl, but you should drive them all and see what you like best, maybe write down on a piece of paper what you are looking for in a car and whatever car matches it get that one

I like the NSX, more exclusive, and is reliable. Saw a beautiful light grey metallic one at the dealer. Never liked vettes that much, the new ones are more Japanese now, and better tho.

Don't think you could go wrong with anything on that list though, none are bad cars. I would just think twice about a Vette if its a primary car.
Have had an 04 M3 for some time now, its been great thus far.
