So you'd go from an FX to a coupe? And you consider the GT-R too big?!

LOL...I do a lot of driving. Nearly 200 miles a day. So the FX is great for those long trips...especially when I need to haul stuff. However, I'm single and want a car for those rare times I have time off from work. I'm defintely going to look at the SLK350 (even though I really want a 55 AMG) although it isn't AWD. I don't really want a 335xi because everyone and their brother, sister, mother, and uncle has one. I'm not really a BMW guy anyway.

The GT-R is about the size of a G coupe...just much wider. So yeah, is guess if I'm interested in an AWD G, I should be interested in the GT-R. I'm very interested in the GT-R but I just don't want to spend that kind of money..........yet.

I've driven the GT-R. Uh, it's not really an exotic. At least it doesn't feel like an exotic. It feels like a Nissan with all wheel drive (now THAT you feel). It is stupid fast though. Let me say that again because it's worth repeating; it's STUPID FAST. The driving characteristics are kind of out of this worldly. I'd compare it to the Gallardo but it seems to hold even better. It just doesn't "feel" like an exotic. Anyways, I wouldn't drive it as an everyday car.
