I do like the Beamers, but not as much overall. If you want more "fun," than I'd say go with the BMW.

I will say, if you don't mind hatchbacks, test out a Volkswagen Golf R. Those things are fun to drive. 292 HP stock and MSRP is around 36,500. You can get up to like 400 HP if you get the right add-ons aftermarket.
Mercedes are damned nice - I had a 2000 black on black S500 in 05ish (correction - more like '07) - it was a big Victor Newman type car - but I loved it. However today - i'd never consider a mercedes unless it was of the AMG variety. I LOVE the SLS GT (AMG) w/ the LAMBO doors. But that's their answer to the Audi R8 - So you're looking at around $119k there - and yeah - that's just stupid to pay that.
