Got the cadillac sport with the 255hp V-6.
Tons of electronic goodies to entertain me and a very stable yet comfy ride.
The transmission is the same one that comes in the BMW 5 series and the seats are made buy the same people who do BMW seats so there is some quality in the car.

Cadillac has come a long way and is not your grannys car anymore trust me.
They have three cars that do 0-60 in under 5secs:huh

Your passenger side mirror should rotate down (thus allowing you to see the curb clearly) when you put it in reverse to back in while parallel parking. No need for pimp wires these days.

If your mirror does NOT rotate down while backing up, then I can only say "You should have bought a BMW"

If each key doesnt memorize your seat position,radio station,Microclimate setting,seat temp,st.wheel temp blah-blah-blah...then i can also say
"You should have bought a BMW"

I can't believe I am admitting this but the Z4 has really grown on me. Probably because of GT4.

Keys? Keys are soooo 2005.

Both of the BMW Z cars look good. Of course, I would have a Z8 if I could have afforded it. Although, a convertible around here is a waste of time. We just do not have enough moderate weather, during the course of a year, to be able to enjoy a convertible.

BMW has this key "thing" since i dont know 1996 or 97.
You can order OEM hart top for your convertible,but Z8 no longer on production line:(,i bet you'd like new M6:)

Hehe, ATA, I was making a funny. The Lexus IS does not have a key.

And what numpty would not like a BWM 6 series, of any kind?!? I think it is a beautiful car. The Wife would kill to have one. Of course, for over $70,000.00 it damn well better be nice.

Of course, we would like an Aston Martin DB8 too.

Whenever you get above the $50K price level, you really open yourself up to some really incredible rides.

It was more of an assertion, or a modest acknowledgement, rather than a point.
