+1 on the PS2s. On a purely subjective level, I like the feel much more than the Contis - more soft and sticky.

Am waiting for my rears to wear out on my PSes (unfortunately, only 2K miles thus far) so I can replace the set with PS2s. I've heard they are much better. As it is now, I look like I'm drunk on worn out roads traveled often by truckers.

I wrote up a partial list earlier in the thread.

While I admire Porsches, and wouldn't kick certain models out of bed, they fail to win me over. Can't put my finger on it.

I had high hopes for the Aston Martin Vantage...until I drove one (the initial 4.3 liter, not the 4.8, though), after which I couldn't justify the price jump. I was thinking Vantage because I didn't want to go another round modding a car, and it's ******* gorgeous:

If a E92 CSL becomes a reality, and then makes it ashore in the states, well, might be time for a new daily driver...here's one of the pics of a possible mule on the Nurburgring last September:

That's an excellent deal man, looks like ZCP......in a few years when I retire my E46, I plan on upgrading to the E92 M3 or the next gen Z4 M coupe.

First post here, but I was in your same situation and decided to go with a low mileage E36 M3 LTW and picked up an E34 M5 for daily driving.
