How about an Audi A5 coupe? The S5 version in 2008 will crank out 353hp. And there may be a rowdy RS5 in '09. The A5 looks to be positioned somewhere between BMW's 335 coupe and the 650.

Just a suggestion,

What about the Lexus LS 600h L?

http://www.lexus.com/2007ls_prelaunc....html?t=hybrid

Even though the style is a bit blend, I like hybrid and all the technologies that it has..Pre-collision system with camera monitoring driver alertness, HardDisk audio drive, automatic parellel parking system (yes, 1-button and it does parallel parking - my wife would love this), recline back seats and others...

Sure, it does not drive like a BMW but I love technology...

Ya the GS 450h is nice. Impressive combination of gas engine and electric motor. Lexus is starting to get things closer to right. a generation before I would have preferred the Infiniti counter part but now seems like Lexus has taken that lead in my heart. IS over the G35... GS over the M...

From most to least important E60 535TT, E90 335TT, Lexus IS350 or LS460, or 745/750i
No hybrid, and I don't want it.

Really? not even the GS 450h? thats one quick hybrid... I'll take it! If they made a IS 350h with just as much HP and acceleration curve as the regular IS 350 I would have taken it... given that its not like $5K more...

Like to keep 530d until new 5er, but in the mean time need something snappy to play and to wife. 5er is too big for her! So 335i, 330i or maybe cabrio Mustang maybe even Shelby 500.
