With 4 soon to be in college, I think I'm keeping my current ride for awhile.

Therefore my next ride will probably be a JAZZY SCOOTER!

R8 or AM Vantage v10. It will not be a replacement, it will be an addition. This bad boy e92 is my baby and will live on for a long time

My next car
Will have half the power of my M3
But it will also have half the weight

I used to think the same thing about the Porsche's being ugly.
I also use to think my E92 was one of the best looking cars out there.

But I had a 911 Turbo S parked next to my M3 for 7 months last year,
and all I could think is how normal and unsporty my E92 looked in
comparison. And after i drove it, that was it. Night and day difference.

Now that I haven't seen the Turbo S anymore, my car is real good looking again.

To answer the thread, I will definitely be considering the new 911.

IF, big IF, I were to replace, it would probably be an F10 M5. Was just building one online and DAMN! thats a bad ass car. But I just got my dream M3 last year so it would be a long time till then...

Considered the AMG C63 sedan a couple months ago but decided to hold onto my E90. Figure I'd be better off building the M3 w/SC if needed before trading in to buy the AMG. Looked @ the new M5, but IMO, the M5 is too big with too many features and the FAKE piped in exhaust sounds absolutely kill it for me.

Wife likes the Panamera which we admittedly both thought looked horrid when it first came out, but it definitely grows on you. May look into that for her when the time comes.

I'm headed towards an A8, S8 or Panamera. My next sports car will hopefully be a 50 year old Alfa Romeo.

I am one of those guys that has BMW=Porsche=Mercedes Benz. To me Porsche is not a step up in my book. Plus a lot of Porsche cars are less then appealing to look at.

So for me I already have a less sporty current body style X5 so my next step up would be a Gallardo or R8. Possibly even a Ferrari F430.

Yeah, I guess that would suck. I would feel the same way if I had a GT-R parked next to mine as well. It is ugly as hell, but its performance is just ridiculous. I know P cars are amazing, but I'm also a family man... so I have to take that into consideration. My E90 does it all IMHO (for me anyways).

Won't be replacing my M3...... I will be adding to the collection.

My next new car will be an F80 M3, F10 M5 or 991 911 GT3...... I will have to wait until the F80 M3 and 991 GT3 hit market before I make up my mind.

In the meantime I will be adding an E30 M3 and E46 M3 to my collection before too long!
