Question What's Next??? How about you Guys too??

I was just looking at my most recent lease statement and I have 13 months left after my current payment. I would really like to get an E63 and have heard they might bump the HP to 540 without the TT's. Most likely I would get into the upcoming W212 which I think will be an 2010 model in 2009 which timing works ok for me. What are your thoughts on what's next for you guys? any thoughts?

All that is V12 TT I like the W216, but I'll let someone take the $120K hit, so I am in no hurry.

All up to AMG at this point. Waiting on that 6.3 TT and seeing how far down the food chain she goes.

If it stays SLC only, then I may just keep messing around with 65's for the future. Loving how the 03's are really dumping in price.

Chip um, throw on some NOS and have a party.

May also literally strip an 03 E55 down and make it a drag car. Sure would be fun. One lightweight seat, every piece that can be removed gone, and a massive shot of NOS, what a blast.
