I've had 3 4dr sedans in a row and i kind of like the room. I am contiplating on buying an 06 M5 with low miles. What do you guys think? I think the sti i had made me feel like everything above mid 12's is slow..haha.

M5 is a nice car. If it's what you want then go for it.

It is. I just feel the G37 is kind of sluggish and slow. Maybe thats just me. I mean it's quick, but feels kind of quirky in stop and go traffic(auto). Maybe it's just me trying to justify getting screwed on a car, and having to pay $5k+to get out of the situation...idk. Oh well i'll still be on this site no matter what i get.

Why not add FI to your G37? That would certainly give you power...at least close to the M5, for much less $$.

I could but i would like the reliability of a stock car. The M5 is in a completely different class. It handles better and with the ecu remapped can go 200mph. It's also a larger four door sedan. I think the sti got me in the mind set to like four door cars. I'm going to see what kind of trade they will give me, but i'm sure it is not what i would want. I'm going to take my time this time and make sure i don't get hosed
