Mike I love E55 but I go skiing. So I prefer a car that has AWD. And I found a car and I am picking it up on Sunday ;-) Will post pics.

Oh and Mike, call George and tell him to buy my car ;-) We have worked out the costs and everything but he just needs to make sure everything is OK. So if you talk to Alex and George today, help nudge them to buy my car ;-) It's practically theirs anyways ;-)

If I don't make a deal on a new house this afternoon, I'll probably take you up on this. seems fair to me.

RS6 is a much better handling car then the E55 the E55 has a real set on it though in the power department!

You're not even going to tell us what the car is or anything about it after all the inputs, that's cold blooded. Congrats on the new car.

I agree the M5 is a weak car in and out plus the engine like all the M engines requires you to be constantly in high RPM range to get power out of it. Fred before you do the S4 drive the C55 it is a scream!
The m5 is a little different, if you drive one you'll notice it has a lot of torque and power at the lower rpm range, you dont have to be at the higher range to reap the benefits.

What about a 996 Turbo. It can seat 4, awd, nice engine, easily moddible, looks pretty nice, and they are going for around 75k.

Just a thought.
