Help me buy a new car.
My beloved 2005 Mustang has reached the end of its life. 144K miles its time to move on. Going to start a new job with a commute across a long bridge over water. Going to miss it.


You help me decide. Point me in the right direction. Give me the great info that puts me in the right car.......I'll send $50 to the charity of your choice.

Criteria:
I want to spend between $30k - $40K.
Automatic
Got some style
Have to be able to fit in the car comfortably
Prefer a coupe


Right now I'm thinking new Challenger, Nissan 370Z, Mustang etc. Son is telling me to look at used Mercedes, Lexus etc.

What ideas do you have?

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Update 03/11/2015
It's a done deal. I've bought and ordered a 2015 Challenger SCAT Pack Shaker. 392 Hemi 6.4L, 486 HP, 475 toruque, 4.1 second 0-60 time. Has all the same luxury "stuff" as the BMW and Lexus's.

Last years "Shaker" models sold out in 4 days. I decided if I was going retro, go all in and went with the lime green 1971 Challenger remodel. Bumblebee stripe and the Shaker hood. I deleted the stripes on the roof and the hood. Will take 6-8 weeks for delivery. Dark wheels.

I gave $50 each to the charity of their choice to Bearcat and Miles. When Simply Red shows back up, I'll get his charity the money.

The Car arrived finally......

He didn't open it up enough for me to get a good feel - which was lame - yes - the Porsche are phenomenal. 2.8 is moving.

Bet a 997.5 Turbo hits every point you would want in a car. Its shocking how fast and kinda scary that 2.8 is.

The first JB4 Charcoal '07 335 tuned was around 3.6 secs 0-60 - seriously - i'm not even joking - that's great pull for $35kish.....

That' pretty damn quick. The madness of the Porsche Turbo is somehow ALL of the power is delivered with none or minimal burning tires.

Challenger R/T Scat Pack may be my final answer but a little more that your budget. Might take a bit of patience to get one but it's priced so well for that insane power for a new car in that range. Though a new 5.7 very likely offers more than enough if you go that route.

I'm not at all brand loyal at all when it comes to cars. BMW tends to check all of the right boxes when it comes to coupes and how they drive makes me like them so much.

Are you still narrowed in on BMW vs Challenger? I'd at least drive the Lexus RC 350 F and the Cadillac ATS just to be sure. My opinion, but both those cars are damn nice, unless you just don't like the looks.

BRC - here are the clearest photos of my M, just wanted you to see the size plus how it looks actually clean (we've been getting so much rain) w/ that black grill.

Miles - I can't remember if you ever did - I don't think you did - but if I'm mistaken - I apologize.

Could you post a photo of you vehicle?

Very cool. The black grill is way better. Tremendous improvement.
