My Ride: 07 530i Mystic Blue
Congrats Vic on your sale. Although sad to see her go. Was it sold to a forum member or craiglist/autotrader?
F10 535i would be the winner, but also most expensvie probably? I have driven my friend's MINI John Cooper Works (JCW) version and it was a blast - however I'm not fond of the small trunk space where I can't fit my clubs. What about an M3 haha?

My Ride: 2005 545i Black. Premium, Sport, Winter packages. PDC.
A forum member bought the car. Glad it was one of ours. At least I know he will take care of the car the way I did.
The Mini S was fun and so was the S4. Right now I am leaning towards the MINI but I can't stop thinking of the 535i.
Member from the forum bought it. Thanks again.
Yes, the MINI is small but my clubs would fit fine as the back seats fold down.
Thanks Simon. Maybe I'll get you to code my new F10.
How did you like S4 and Cooper S? Seems like those are the most driver's cars of the ones you've mentioned. Personally, I'd go for the S4 for the driving pleasure (IF it is as good as all the reviews seem to indicate - I haven't actually driven the new S4 yet) or the F10 if you just want to "step up" from the E60. After all said and done, the F10 is still a great car, it just isn't as nimble and hardcore as E60. But that only brings about a different kind of Bimmer - a grown up, more of a cruising than curve-carving one. But since I don't really carve as much as I'd like to anyway, I would go for a 535i X-drive (X-drive because it doesn't have the electric power steering, as well as AWD for those ski trips).
Anyway, sorry for the longish post and congrats on selling the car!
Good Luck with whatever you get!
PS how does everyone sell their cars so quickly? I can't seem to let go...

Haha, cannot, lack the hardware to do it. From the information known right now, I doubt the community will be able to the coding and programming stuff for this next generation that uses the new platform (at least for a long while).

Congrats again bro.
So after sleepless nights of debating,
here is my decision:
2012 MINI Cooper S, Black on Black, 17 inch wheels, sunroof, JCW dash (leather and suede). So let the modding begin on this sucker.
Sold my BMW 545i and Prius and it gave birth to a MINI. The power, handling and even color of my BMW joined together with the compactness and gas saver of my Prius. A match made in heaven.
