Like most here an M5 is my vote. The x6 is useless IMO. Good luck with your search. One more vechicle you could add to the list is e90 or e92 M3. That's a bad ass car.

Sorry to say but heres another vote for the M5! My dad has one and theres nothing like it! the brutal acceleration, sharp gear changes and exhaust note are amazing! the gearbox takes some time to get used to but still an "epic" car.

When i visited the UAE m5's seemed to be very scarce! Have you not considered something like the Corvette C6Z06?

P.S the outdoor go kart track by the F1 circut there is crazy!! :biggrin: My fastest lap round there was a 1:16.84 or something!

With your high status. Contact Audi about a special car.
As ad78 said. Definitely look into a TTS or TTR. An S5 will pull chicks like nothing seeing as how its the cheapest hottest car for under 65k money can buy.

That is a tough one. It would be between the M5 and the STi for me. The M5 because it is a monster, but it is about to become an old model, and you would have to care a lot for it, like where you park and what not. Also you already have a pimp ass car.

The STi because it is quick as hell, as you said you dont have to worry much about it, and you could have fun with it out in the desert.

is all i can say for the M5. Its still on the list for sure.

The ZO6 is a nice car, but def not my taste. No offense, most Americans will agree, i hate American built cars. Its too plastiky.

You mean the F1 Circuit in Bahrain, yeah, that go kart track is awesome. Its a mini Bahrain F1 Circuit fyi if u didnt know :biggrin: and ur time is really good too btw

After checking out the TT's, im looking at what can be done to S5's cosmetically, all i can say is WOW when its hooked up with a nice set of wheels. Pure seks

Go with the twin turbo X6. It's a new body style with a powerful engine (with plenty of room for improvement too, it is a turbo). They can fit a wide variety of wheels/ tires and the aftermarket has already produced a pretty good selection of body kits and aesthetics to make it your own. Plus the x6 looks mean as hell from the front, like "i want to eat your children" mean lol.
go get yourself a genuine UAV! (Urban Assult Vehicle :wink

Out of your original 'list' of two, far and away the M5. I still haven't decided if the X6 is BMW's Aztec yet, but it's still kinda homely and pointless. Audis have never done anything for me.

I'll throw the Cadillac CTS-V out as a possibility. It's a pretty nice car (though no 135), and if GM can do *anything* right, it's air conditioning. That's probably high on your list of 'must-haves'. :wink:

I loved the new CTS-V for just a minute then it looked fragile. I agree they make good A/C's, still not better than the Corrola :biggrin:

I dont want to pay for a car that'll make me look good when i already am.

No doubt, its still an amazing car, but i always put performance first, then build quality.

i looked at an x6 the other day in the showroom at beverly hills, and while i do agree that it's not extremely practical, it's epic enough that i don't care at all. that's one of the most randomly and unnecessarily made awesome cars that i've ever seen.
