Re: going through mid life crisis.. please help

I'm really getting torn between performance and luxury (as I stated must be a mid life crisis at 26 LOL). Hell, I can't even decide if I want to go manual or auto

Your answer

BMW M3
both performance and luxury
Just a suggestion

I recommend the G35c if you're looking for style & performance. IMO, the only real edge the TL holds is the interior.

Try to hold out for the 05s, redesigned interior (reducing the TL's edge), 19" wheels, new sports suspension.

The G35c has way more performance (handling) than the TL but also enough luxury to satisfy IMO.

Silicone, botox, health club, and body part extension might be better than a car for a true midlife crisis.

No sure who what a car empresses other than young girls and boys under 35.............now if you have a driver for your NEW Bentley, a car might get you a tiny bit better loan terms or a quicker table in a resturant [with the appropriate tip].

What you drive usually doesn't get an upgrade to Business Class, doesn't get you out of jail faster [though some cars can get you in faster]. A car doesn't provide or create health.

What does a type model car do anyway for the human condition? Not sure.

Re: going through mid life crisis.. please help

The back is kind of strange. It's got quite a bit of leg room for a coupe, but very short on the head room. Therefore, (imo) depending on what type of body the person has will determine whether or not they will be comfortable in the back or not.
For instance, I'm 5'6, but my head rests on the windshield (feels very unsafe), however, a girl from my work is also 5'6 and she has plenty of head room. She of course has most of her height in her legs where I don't. I have the option to slouch a little and then I'll be fine, but I like to sit up straight.

I always had 4 door cars, but realized that I rarly used the backseat (1-2 days a month) so I thought getting a coupe wouldn't be a big deal. Well now that I have the coupe I am almost always the one driving when we go out so my back seat is used about 2-4 days a week. Talk about a catch 22.

What acura forum did you post on? I am curious to read their viewpoints, thanks.

Nate

CLK55 to a G35c or TL? What are you thinking. Why are you downgrading during midlife crisis.

I will consider M3, S4, or Porsche 911 (non-turbo)
I take the Porsche.

I think the CTS-V is interesting but at $50K is quite a bit more than the G.
