I've thought about the used M3 route. I love those cars, my roommate has one -which is in the shop presently. Those seem to be more of a maintenance issue than Porsche. The main thing that bothers me about having an M3 is the fact that I would have an old body style while the new ones are out. That's not such a big deal (ie, my Boxster), but I love the look of the new 3s so much more that I would feel slighted every time I saw one. I don't care for the M Roadster. I like the new Z4 Coupes, but also out of price range (starting around 40k).

Timothy, after today's test drive, I'll be hanging on to the Boxster a little while longer I suppose. That's funny though... the G35 is the Accord of Uptown. By the way, do you live in Uptown as well? If so, we need to grab a burger at Chip's or Jake's or something.

Bmussatti, I was reminded how great of a car I have on my drive home from the BMW test drive. (But actually, I didn't drive straight home, I drove to the Porsche Dealership to get a closer look at the Cayman.) By the way, I'll be in Chicago the 3rd week of October. Let's round up the troops again!
