smh, you suckas keep getting married only to get divorced and get shafted. When will we learn? I've been with the same woman for 10 years and I don't need some piece of paper to make it "official". The best thing is, if I decide to split, I jump into my 550i and peel out and maybe run over a lawyer while I'm at it!

Hey Mark, sorry to hear about the divorce. Been there and its not easy for both parties especially when kids are involved. Good luck with everything and enjoy the single life again like not worrying about leaving the toilet seat up...etc lol

Okay, I'm sorry I couldn't help myself. I actually picked up a 2007 Infiniti M45 Sport. So it is an M just wrong company and M45.
I traded in the TL. I've had my eye on these as the prices have come down. It only has 16K miles on it and it's certified to 100K or the next 42 months. It is absolutely loaded with every option. It's actually pretty fast, handles, and drives fantastic(obviously not compared to the M5). I was looking at an 07 and up Mercedes CLS or an E-Class. I will tell you that Mercedes absolutely suck without an AMG package. I was almost put to sleep when I was test driving both of those. I was very disappointed. I was very tempted to buy a 550, but if was going to "downgrade" it couldn't be another E60. It would be too weird to be sitting in basically the same looking car without the performance of an M. I'll wait until the F10 sits better with me.
Overall it will be a nice daily replacement for the M5 now that it will be going away.(story for another day...I promise I'll tell you all soon. HINT: See my signature change on the bottom)
Here are some pics while I have both.
