New car suggestions...?

I have been wanting a new car for a while now, and now that my warranty is up it gives me a reason to go buy something newer.. So I am pretty much thinking to buy a 6-speed 335i Coupe. I don't know what else is as quick, luxurious, sporty, has warranty and has the potential to pick up 70rwhp with just a chip.. Any ideas?? *under $35k..

I was thinking about that, but it would almost cost me as much in labor to remove the parts and install the factory parts as I would get for selling the aftermarket things.. Only thing I was thinking about selling would be the wheels..

The MREV and Spacer would be easy to sell as well.

I do have the factory plenum, how much do you think a shop would charge for that? I had multiple things done at the same time, so I don't remember what they charged for install..

its like 15 bolts that secure the upper plenum and like 8 more for the lower one, you can prob do this yourself in under an hour, just look up the install instructions from one of the manufacturers online.

For under 35k, you are not gonna find a new 335, maybe a 135 (around 38k). Im a big fan of that 3/1 35 engine, almost 400 horses after chip with lots of potential.

The new camaros look pretty sharp, havent seen one in person but looks good online/tv. The Genesis Coupe is nice too

these are all cars i looked at back in december so...

g37 - well its obvious what i chose.
335 - love the looks and performance but interior is crap for the price. also reliability can suck.
s5 - gorgeous but too much of a heavy touring car for me.
vette - great performance but only 2 seats and interior eh.
camaro - love the styling but just too new and interior eh again.

My car choices

-2009 Impreza WRX : Looks like a fun car to drive and some bodykits they have for it make it look good.

-2009 Evo GSR : It's an evo.

-2009 G37 : Can't go wrong.

-2009 370z : It's growing on me.

-Keep your car and go TT....lol
