Like I said I have a new Job offer at Charles Schwab to be a broker, and will be looking to upgrade the GTX this summer, hopefully.

Here is my list of option and the +/-. Admin feel free to move to another section.

The problem for everything comes with trying to find something with low miles and @ a decent price

Take into consideration i drive 110Miles a day to and from work. At least until the end of July

Option 1
2008-2009 CTS V
Positive: Everything, This is my #1 choice
Negative: Price

Option 2
2006-2009 Jeep SRT8
Negative: Fuel consumption, Basic interior/Dash
There is an 08' in town only 28K miles Asking $29000

Option 3
G8 GT
Negatives: Basic interior
Positives: can be found for pretty cheap with low miles, Powerful, use of excess $ to purchase upgrades

Option 4
New Infiniti G37x/s/IPL
Positives: Can be found cheap with lowish miles
Negatives: not too familiar with them in person

Option 5
2006-2010 Audi S4
Negative: can be pricey, not too much experience.
good friend bought a brand new 2012 S4, and its a beast. Got me looking

Option 6
Lexus IS350
Can be found for decent price/Miles


Future upgrades to consider:
Wheels
Suspension
Brakes
Full Audio/video (which im tempted to transfer from the GTX)
Id like to be in the low 13s-high 12s.

I feel like the G8 will get me to where i want to be @ the cheapest price but the CTSV and SRT8 are my top choices. Which of course are the most expensive.

I need to stay under $27000
Iv been looking for years, literally, im just not sure what would be best.

I'd say the CTS. Would be a nice comfortable ride for work seeing as you're traveling that far.

And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle ;)

Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

The first couple vehicles listed, you will spend roughly $25 a day in gas.. Lol

Didn't check the last options but you might want something a little more gas efficient. Otherwise all your new hard earned money will go straight to the gas tank.

Depends what you want. I would take the Lexus / Infiniti but thats just me. The Jeep wont do well with the 110 miles a day.

If you get the G37S, that pushes out more then 300 HP and it's a nice car.
