My Ride: 2009 DINAN 135 convertible
Hey guys, I drove a new M3 tonight w/DCT. Absolutely fantastic car. Gorgeous looks and monster power. The exhaust sounds great and that DCT is so seemless it is amazing.
Only question I have: Can it be driven in snow w/snow tires? I drive my 545 in the snow w/snow tires, and I don't have any problem with it. How much different in the snow would the M3 be from my 545?

I've decided that my next car has to have 4 seats, so all my time spent over on Lotustalk and reading reviews of the Cayman are now for naught. I also am ready to go back to a coupe or convertible, so 2 doors only.
Basically, I would just buy the newest model I could afford from this list, and depending on price, I may or may not keep my 545 as a DD. I am going to create an excel spreadsheet with all the data for each car, and then create a subjective and objective scoring system to rank them. I have to find some way to decide whether a brand new 135 would be better than a 2 year old M3 or a 4 year old M6 or an 8-year old DB7. It's tough. Note, I intentionally left the Maserati off the list because of the 15,000 mile clutch-replacement that they require and the $500 oil changes.
Here's the list right now. Let me know if I am missing anything. Thx.
Aston-Martin DB7
Audi S5
Audi TTS
BMW 135
BMW 650
BMW M3
BMW M6
Infiniti G37
Jaguar XKR
Mercedes-Benz CL550
Nissan GTR
Porsche 911 S (2005+)
Porsche 911 Turbo (1996/1997)
Porsche 911 Turbo (2000-2003)
