In the market for a new car.
As far as BMW's go, i would get one of those. They are the complete package (depending on which one you get, i prefer you get an E36 or E46 ///M3). The newest ///M3's (E46) are pricey at about $52k, but all that money is fuckin worth it!! Or you can find a used (E36) and if its in really good shape, it will probably run somewhere in the low to upper mid 20's. Just my $0.02

Ok, you don't want a v8 because of gas consumption, yet you want a AWD Turbo car that runs at @19 PSI?
I'll bet you an Sti/Evo (at least the evo, 5spd?) gets far worse gas mileage than an LS1.
With THAT in mind - buy a damn Cobra.
Why would anyone pay 32k for a car with NO options? Ooh, "Rally inspired" yippe.
The new TL is NICE as shit. If its too "family" for you, look at the TSX.
I love the look of the new 3series BMW's, but I've heard pretty negative things about the quality of them, no clue if any of its just passed around hearsay though.
G35c (NOT 4 DOOR - gross.) is probably my favorite of your choices. Get silver/gold with the gunmetal rims. Mm. And it's an Infiniti, so I'm sure you get every option known to man.
Basically, how do you want to spend your money?
Complete LACK of luxury - but speed?
or...
Ultimate luxury and speed when you need it?
Boy racer or classy?...hm.

I don't like the new cobra even though it's fast as hell.
I'm going to check out a BMW - I can't afford an M3 - 53,000 is about 20,000 out of my price range :P
I'm going to go test drive the 2 door infiniti, and that TSX you pointed out. As well as that BMW. I still like that STi though :P
Sounds like a 02-03 330Ci is right up your alley. They are just a cunt hair slower than the E36 M3's and you get 30+ mpg on the highway. Supercharger systems are available, too. You can get them used for around 30K with little miles on them. And if you buy one from a dealer, you get the Certified Pre-Owned warranty which is 6 years/100,000 miles. It's a hard thing to pass up. But first go and test drive one. If you can't find one to test drive, PM me. I know a bunch of people that have 330s that will let you drive them. Good luck.
