My next car will have to be something to replace the X3, its lease is up next April. Leading choices are a 328xi wagon, another X3, or a competitive product. I'd like an X6 but don't want something as big and expensive as it for a 2nd car (but still want a nice daily driver with good utility). If I could fit a 2007 X5 into my budget, I might do that.
I've got 2 years left on the 550i lease. Next for it would be an F10 (if available) or an E92 M3. I really like the coupe styling.

Difficult to say today. F10? Maybe but we know little about this future car and what will be the competition when it is available. Based on the pleasure I have to drive the E60 it's definitely a possibility though.

Talking about the 2nd car... 335xi or new A4 quattro, maybe S5? Drove G37 the other day -
terrible, have no idea why it got a good reputation. I want an AWD, quattro is tested for me
and I'm confident it works. What do you guys like - 335xi or A4?

My 530d is starting to get too many miles on it, so I am thinking of buying a new car. I am really happy with my car, so maybe it will be another e60 but I am open for other suggestions. What are you guys planning on buying next?
Aston Martin Vantage or Caddilac Escalade EXT

Under good maintaince, 300K is not a big deal for real BMW, bcoz it's "Made in Germany"

I know I can drive my e60 much longer, but it sounded as a good excuse to buy something else, haha. I have had it for about 3 years now and I like to change evry once in a while.
I have been looking at other e60's, X5 (e70), Range Rover Sport, Cayenne, e63/e64, Audi A5, Audi A6, Mercedes CLS, and some other cars I don't even remember anymore... As you can see a wide variety of types, that's why I was wondering about you guys. Since I just became a father 3 months ago I think I have to decide wisely and choose between an e61 and an audi A6 avant (SUV's are going to cost too much on gas, road taxes and insurance) and look for a fun car in the future to buy next to it.
