Here is my .05 worth. I own both a 4.4 and a 4.6. Both are 03s with 103k and 89k miles respectively. The 4.4 has proven to have better dependability, better mileage and not as expensive to maintain.
You gotta love the 4.6 tho, it is classic, more rare, more fun to drive, and has a much higher cool quotient . How about you run an add with both cars pictured, ask the same price with full disclosure for both and let the buyer determine which one you keep. Let's say 4 out of 5 potential buyers are more interested in the 4.6 then that is the one you keep. Best of luck on your choice. |

Is that 4.4i a non-sport? If so, I vote for the 4.6is.

well you have previously expressed a preference for the 4.8is so what is 0.2 liter between friends .
the 2 axle air suspension could be a hassle on a 4.8 Haggis |

Go with your gut. The 4.6 is a great ride but your 04 is newer. less mpg with the 4.6. i would go 4.6

Whichever one I choose will be sitting in the garage for 5 months starting in January. Going abroad.
I need to detail and drive the 4.6 this weekend and see how I feel. My 4.4i is at Morristown BMW getting fixed... Somebody make me an offer for one of them!!

swap everything from the 4.6 into the 4.4 and then sell the 4.6 body with 4.4 parts. best of both worlds. jk
