In no particular order:
1) 2006 Mini Cooper S
2) 2006 330xi or 2007 335xi, depending when I get the car..
3) 2007 328xi coupe or 335i coupe

Based on your list, the Mini and the 06 330xi are the only cars you can test drive now. The others won't realistically hit the showrooms till Nov b/c there's a lot of demand and pre-orders for the e92 coupe. I've had a deposit for more than 2 months now and don't expect delivery till Nov.

I couldn't imagine having a Mini as the only car b/c its so small; maybe as a 2nd or 3rd car, but its still not fast enough for me.

Perhaps, it's time to go back and reread those threads. Next step now really, as ben pointed out, is for you to get your butt in the driver's seats.

Well said.

That mod would be the best mod for the buck if you calculate how much you can save in airfare...

Since you have three extra seats in the Cooper you can sell tickets for the other seats.

This is a Pre-Test drive thread... No driving necessary.

The Mini is again Torquey but again it is deceiving because it can hang with any V6...

Take this into perspective; .................................................n ever mind I doubt you are going to read what I say anyways...

I'm obviously going to test drive the cars. I've already said that. The point of this thread was to gather peoples' opinions on the cars. But apparently that's impossible.

OMG TEST DRIVE THEM ALL.

AND PICK THE ONE THAT FEELS RIGHT !

THIS IS YOUR CAR. NOT X5WORLDS CAR !
