I think after a brutal week at work the last thing I want to do is drive home in bumper to bumper traffic in a WRX :)

Sorry to hear about your "troubles", but I LOVE my TSX.  :) It just hit 140.5 kms...I just wish it was a 6MT.

IMO, the G37S would be the best choice on your list.

Negotiations complete!

Me: "blah blah blah. Youth doesn't last forever. Blah blah. You got your Z4 when you didn't even have a job. Blah blah. I can afford that G37 easy."

Her: "Blah blah blah. You must wait two years. Doesn't make sense for us to force ourselves into a decision of getting rid of either the Z4 or the G37 when my Dodgey Dodge Company Car comes. Blah blah. So we should at least keep the Z4 for another two years which will make it a total of 3.5. Blah. You don't want to keep the G37 forever anyways because its not your dream car, its just a random happy medium."

Me: "Ok, but in two years I reserve the right to at any given time get something bat-:censor: crazy. Blah blah."

Her: "Like what?"

Me: "A GT-R, an RS4, some AMGs..."

Her: "Ok."

Me: "Deal!"

Ummmmm...I think that the Wife (and more importantly you) has just succumbed to G37S fever.
Congratualtions! Need any help finding one? ;D

Do you realize that in about 40 years, we'll have thousands of old ladies running around with tattoos?

I dunn'o man, two years is a long time when you're already struggling!
If I might suggest some sage advise; Wouldn't it be better to get the G now and then bargain the trade up AMG plan once she starts pushing the baby thing? ;)

Ah, perhaps, but for the moment I have also negotiated myself into primarily driving the Z4 for these next two years to hopefully tide me over. :)

That said you do make a decent point.

Do you have it written down, signed, dated and witnessed.  I vote RS4 for carrying the future baby around.     :)

mmret, I think driving the Z4 for now probably has the biggest chance of quenching your thirst.... momentarily......
