Default Thinking about trading the S2k in...

While the S2000 is a great car, I think its time for me to get rid of it. Having it as DD is a PITA sometimes. What would be some good replacement? I'm looking for sort of a luxury car. Here is my choices so far, what else would you recommend?
- 2006 BMW 325i
- 2005 Acura TL
-2005+ G35

my price range is below $30,000

I would trade it in for a TL. The TL Type S in particular is probably one of the few cars I would not have to hesitate to trade my car in for (reasonably priced).

Yea I love the new TL-S, but its a little out of my price range. Maybe I'll get lucky and find a cheaper used one.

I vote for the G35. I had an 03--absolutely loved it. Not sure how long you're intending to keep it, but BMWs kinda get expensive in the long run.

I sold my S2K in July and bought a 2004 TL-Navi. Couldn't be happier! I loved the S2K while I had it, but I didn't want to have it through the winter.

G35's look good, but they feel rather cheap inside.

BMW....meh.

No on the G35 coupe'. It was not refined in the slightest, and for a car with a sticker approaching 42K, did not inclde the luxury features or quality I would expect at this eschelon of vehicle.
