M3 csl - very rare and values hold better than most.
996 c4s - not so rare but relatively few around and still look superb.
M3 (new shape) - may be able to get into an e90.
B7 RS4 - low numbers, amazing v8 soundtrack - 35k will get you a decent 2007 car still under warranty.
Z4MC - and change to buy the wife a new frock.

Just had an RS4, not after another saloon type car. More looking at going back to a 2 seater type thing, RWD. Not sure about the caymans looks, which is why i was leaning more towards the 911.

That must have been a seductive car, if you want rid of the damned thing so quick!

Get a two-seater, but FFS get something with some soul (or even shinto!) this time around.

It's already gone Nick, was made an offer i couldn't refuse. Didn't cost me anything to have it for the short period i did, so no loss. A colleague at work has just suggested a late V8 esprit, have to say i quite like the thought of it.
