If you only have room for two, I would sell the jeep.

I like to say you are a roadster guy or you are not. The first car in my garage will always be a roadster. The wife unit and kids require a second car.

I've seen that V10 up close in an R8 Spyder. My indy was installing a supercharger and other mods. I think it was ~700 HP post wallet lightening.

I'd be a bit hesitant to go out of warranty on any Audi much less an expensive one that you plan to use for regular life in NY. Winters are brutal on these delicate German cars, mostly because if you've been to Germany you know they actually invest in their roads. That's a long tradition there, they go triple deep. Meanwhile over here our roads are great at keeping parts manufacturers and mechanics employed. For a family hauler, I'd go CPO Panamera or CPO Cayenne Turbo.

Thanks guys, I see what you both are saying. Here is the other thing that I did not add my wife loves her jeep but it rarely gets used the same way I love the Boxster but it doesn't get much use either. She drives a new Volvo wagon which is her company car and free and I drive an F150 Supercrew so we have have plenty of kid haulers. We really have no need for a sedan so I guess there is the answer. We would both love a Panamara but haven't found one in our price range yet.
