Default Here we go again.... IS350 for S2000!

So I'm thinking about selling my IS after a whole 5 months of ownership.

I love the IS and all its gadgets, gizmos, and its ride.

BUT

I really miss driving a convertible, but I still want some space and a backseat.

I've still been eyeing an 02-03 ish M3 Vert. Possibly SMG.

Not sure again. I know I know. I'm fickle when it comes to cars. What can I say.

Read update - Laguna Blue S2K???

You're as indecisive as a typical woman! I wish we were in a position to make you an offer on the IS. It's a really nice car. But if the M3 floats your boat, go for it!!!!!!!

That's option 2. I didn't mention that one for fear of more flames...

Nice sig BTW. Car looks clean for once.

I may stop by Libertyville Acura to look at the Laguna Blue that has been sitting on their lot since last fall.

I have a feeling I may have gotten used to having torque though.

Nah. I'd probably take an STI if I were to go that route, but neither really do it for me.

What I REALLY want is an IS convertible. But that's probably not going to be done and in production till late 08 or 09. 335i vert is very nice but also very pricey. I don't want to spend THAT much money on a car.

But I'm not very sure at this point. Its all up in the air. But this last weekend made me miss the open top motoring. With all the windows down and the moonroof it still wasn't the same. M3 vert may fit the bill for the time being. I found a perfect one, except that its not an SMG. I'm not too fond of the stick on the M. I do like the SMG, it shifts fast as heck, better than I could ever shift. Rev matching down shifts are sweet too.
