they're cars not computers soopa. 350z/g35 have only been around for a year...CLK just got a redesign, m3 is maybe 3 years old...

Hmmm... and the prices on early Porsche 996's (1999) are getting to be cheaper then the Porsche 993's (1998 last of the aircooled).
I'm thinking that unless something comes out that's ALOT better then the CLS/G35C in the 30 something price range, I'll probably own my CLS for 5-10 years.

Volvo S60R if I had a lot of money to burn on the bodywork + turbo mods (among other things).
Those Evolve S60s looked mighty nice. Not to mention 500hp. And the suspension is adjustable when the car is bone stock. Nothin beats the practicality of comfort mode, that much power under the hood, AWD, -and- safety.

i've been thinking sti lately. but that new turbo legacy will be insane, and have a ton more room.
or i may keep the cl-s and get a truck. i'd love to have a new GMC 3/4 ton crew cab short bed. put it up on some 35's, or 38's.

My wife and I are thinking about a new Z convertible next summer for shits and giggles. My next car will likely be either a S8 (used); S4 (new); 540 sport or 740i sport.

I'm definitely going rotary, RX-8 or whatever else is out in a few more years.
Mazdatrix in California has already come out with engine rebuilds and high performance upgrades for the new Renesis rotory!
I need another rotary sibling for my showrrom mint 1984 RX-7, who only has 15,000 oringinal miles.
Then I will be in Rotary heaven!

My next car will be another SUV, MDX, if not I want a Mercedes. No not the ML.

I think I would stick with my G sedan for long time. But in case I really change my car, probably it would be the Subaru Legacy STI, if there is such a car.

Were I in the market for a $30-$37k car, I would get a G35C or a Supra TT with a winter beater. Since I'm not exactly rollin' in green right now, I'll be buying my CL-S in February when the lease is up. She has 93k on her, and I love the little piglet.
