Need Help! Best Daily Driver under $100K?

Hey guys! i've been driving the turbo for nearly 5 years and think its time for a change. I want a fun, fast, but gadget loaded daily driver, but want to keep my cost down so i can save my pennies for another weekend car

I also want a convertible and automatic. i've been thinking about the following:
1. 2008-9 BMW M3 Convert

after that...i'm struggling! any ideas?

Sounds like pretty much the best choice under $100k for a automatic vert.

Another vote for the Mini S. It's is a good inexpensive choice. That's my DD. Zero room to haul stuff, but you can fit in any parking space, great fuel econo, fun to drive. Far cry from a TT as far as performance, but you'll have A LOT of pennies left over for the weekend car.

Have you given thought to an SL63 or an SL55? Either of those in CPO would be within you price range and give you a fun and reliable DD.

Bugatti convertible if it's not your money. If it's your own money than I vote for the new Audi S5 convertibe or Masserati GT.
(Btw do you guys realized Todd had 2 new m6 vert already)
