The short term plan is for the X5 to stay but go to my fianceé/wife (sharing sucks) but then I can get something for me. I'm number 1 on the list for the E90 M3 but it's looking more and more like I'll go with something else. Lately it has been an E39 M5. It is the ultimate car if you only could own one car. Talking to Josh and Adam just convinces me more and more. If not the E39 M5 then I would consider an E46 M3, Audi S4 (either the B6 or the B7), or an E90 3er turbo. I'm not too keen on the looks of the E90 and the grille on the B7 S4 is ugly too so looks are a big factor.

I'm leaning towards a 2003 E39 M5. It's a modern classic.
