I have heard that from quite a few of my friends. The upside, I have more freedom on my next car purchase, looking at a DB9, Gallardo or M6.

Funny you mentioned the DB9 adx, since that is the car I am looking at purchasing as well.

Just something about that DB9 says sex, beauty, power, and luxury. God I want one, but only when they fix the transmission issues.

Don't forget "style" and "class".

Just read an article in Roundel on the M6

They said it is much faster than the M5. If I was considering bmw, that is the one to wait for. Late Fall I think??

Yeah M6 will be later on this year. Car looks great on the outside but the interior is still too bloody utilitarian for my taste. If it has as much plastic as the M5 it will be a no go in my stable.
