As usual, I am on the prowl for a new car. This time, however, I am definately buying within the month. The lease on the old Audi is just about up.

Here are the cars I am considering. I am torn between wanting a little convertible to zip around in vs the entry level luxury cars with all the bells and whistles.

Acura TL
Mercedes C320 Sport sedan
BMW 330CI
G35C

And the roadsters are the Boxter S or the BMW Z4. I considered a used 911, but figured that might be more problems than it's worth. Trying to keep things below 40K too, and only 99-00 911's seem to fall in that category.

Going to drive most of the cars tomorrow. Will be making a decision by the end of Feb. (just trying to get a jump on things)

Also, if you have any suggestions, I'm open to them.

Right now, it is between the TL, the C320, and the Z4.

 

My personal opinion = the TL. Good luck on whatever you decide to get!

 

Ya, I drove the TL on Tuesday and really liked it. The dealer offered me $2k off the sticker. This was for an 05 AT with Navi in Anthracite/Camel.

 

seems u have a Murano as daily drving car .. ~
i would pick G35C ~

 

My vote is for the TL.

 

Used 330.

I looked at a new 330 before I bought my CL, but couldn't justify the $$ for what you got (~$42K the way I wanted it). Used 330's are looking more attractive tho'.

 

The Murano is actually her daily driver. I only get to drive it from time to time.

Went and drove the MB and the TL back to back this weekend. The TL definatly has the power, gizmo's, and the best value. However, the MB is a better looking car and the new interior is really nice.

It's gonna be a tough decision.
