There was a kid at my high school who's parents bought him a Saleen Mustang. It was pretty nice up until he floored it and its torque steer put him into a light post. Funny I don't remember him ever getting a new car. BMW is all right however they put a $15,000 mark up on new M3's and there is no way in hell I'm going to hand someone $15,000 for "Market Availability." Maintenance on a Porsche is ungodly costly. And I couldn't stomach paying $60,000 for a V4 with 200HP.

M3 can be had for around invoice here in Phx. There are a ton of them at the dealers. 2.9% financing as well. Spent a lot of time on an M3 forum and I think Hou would be pretty favorable right now as well.

Others: Shelby, Camaro, new Z4, TT-S
