[quote=flu]As far as trade in. You probably will get dinged a bit with the trade in because the F30 3 series is out…But it is what it is….As far as alternatives, you might want to consider the Infiniti G37…Err I mean Q50.. AN has an infiniti G and he swears by it….I’m not a fan of the Lexus IS…. People have also been pretty happy with the FR-S..It’s going to be one of those cult-type cars…

I would stay away from Audi and Mercedes, again unless you plan on turning your own wrench….
Porsche is pretty reliable. BUT obviously more expensive… And service cost is expensive, and that’s one car you probably don’t want to dick around with yourself…[/quote]Hell yeah I swear by my 2004 G35 :-). paramount and I actually had a debate about G vs his 328 awhile back. I’m surprised his tone changed so quickly. My G is over 105k miles right now and still is as powerful as new. I’m planning to keep it for another 3-5 years, so we’ll see if it stays trouble free at 140-150k miles.
