What car would you buy if there was no G?

Re: What car would you buy if there was no G?
I was going to buy a 95 BMW 850csi. The guy was offering it for around 28 or so with 35000 miles. A pretty good deal. The only problem is trying to maintain a 12 cylinder car that is A.)A very limited run exotic, and B.) an out of warranty BMW. I love the g now and am very thrilled with it, but I can't help wishing sometimes, however, that I had that 6 speed and 5.4 v12 all to myself

I'm surprised by the variety as well (lots of similarities, too, but many are 'alternative' choices to the G already).
If I had to buy a different car right now (versus Dec 02 when I got my G), I'd probably wait a bit for and save up some $$$ for the SLK350 that's coming out, the Lotus Elise, or even wait for the M45/35 coming out.
If it had to be 2 dr coupe with usable back seats in the same 'price' range, I think I'd end up with a 330Ci. I liked the way the C320 drove, but I'm not too fond of the 2-dr body style.
I honestly also like the Altima 3.5SL and Volvo S60R, so it'd be a tough decision.

I actually had a deposit on a 330ci, but because of a strike they were having in Germany, the wait would have been too long....
I test drove the coupe a couple times, and decided that was what I really wanted anyway.....and saved about 6,500 in the process
Looking back, I have absolutely no regrets!
