Sold my Individual 135 - Time for a new DD

As some of you know by now that i got an offer over its original price tag by US$21,000 for my undelivered individual 135

http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20796

Im still probably going for a BMW, but not a 135 cuz ill have to wait alot for my kind of order. So i decided to give the UAE BMW dealer a call to know what they have ( i didnt call the local dealer in Bahrain cuz they dont offer 'ish and the customer service is sorry to say, very cheap ). He gave me a good list, and from that list i chose a new X6 3.5 and a new unsold 2008 E60 M5. Still dunno which one to go for. I didnt wanna post this on xbimmer or M5board, cuz they'll say go for what they already have. Over here you guys are very helpfull and understanding ( not saying that the mentioned forums are bad and not helpfull ).

On the other hand, i can go cheap and get my self the new STi for DD that i can rape the hell out of it any day any time and can take me from point A to B like a house fly. I lurked, but still didnt wanna ask this on the Sti forums cuz ill get 99% of replys telling me to go for it and its a blast, just like the other forums i mentioned.

So what do u guys say, im the kind that cant decide on this cuz i love cars and wish i had em all. I need opinions and stuff. Also, if you have anything in mind that is a 4banger turbo please type that to the list and why.

Thanx alot guys, appreciate it.

If you want any kind of vehicles with an amazing fun factor. Look into:
Mini Cooper JCW
X6 50
E60 M5
STI
Evo
Fully Built CRX!
MazdaSpeed MX-5
VW R32 (Friend owns one pulls like a freight train)
S2000CR
NSX
Best of luck with the buy!

If you can afford the insurance and fuel (which I'm sure you can, especially the later) ///M5 without a doubt.

Nice list

+ for

M5, Sti, R32, Mini

- for the others. I dont like Mazda's, Evo's, and the fully built CRX will blow up like my other modified rides. NSX is good, but thats only if i lived in Japan or the States.

M5 would also be my choice. the STi will be fun, but from reading/reviews and a short test drive, it doesn't live up to what it should be... but for 1/3 the cost of a M5, you can't really go wrong either.. :P

of course its the best from BMW imo, but there is one tiny thing also about me which is gay ( not in that manner :P ), when a new shape is coming i back off and wait, but i dont have time now to wait. Its still tempting though

Here's another vote for the M5 if you're willing to live with a full sized car.

Im still reading some stuff about it on the forums, seems it has couple of twitches here and there. Ah man, of course the M5 is the king of em all, but the problem is, its Silverstone, the worst E60 color.

MOTORSPORT 5 without a doubt.

The E60 wont be obsolete in my opinion. It looks to be the LAST BMW V10.

hehe we are alike :biggrin:

The SC Range Sport is very slow, first gen 4.4 X5 rapes it and even rides better. But isnt a chick magnet like the Range.
