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......

That's a big if though because even though it is a 2009 it's a great car and we can't see parting ways right now.
European Delivery would be so much fun.... until I destroyed the car on the Autobahn.

It is amusing that you can drive on your US license for 6 months in Germany.... do they know how terrible we are at driving?!

That's badass. I had no idea that BMW gives you the option of picking up your car at the factory in Germany.

Several do... Audi, MB, Porche, Volvo. I think Porche is the only one that charges extra for it. BMW marks down their cars by $2-3k (which is basically what you'd get at a dealership) and I think they give you a free night at a nice hotel and a tour of their museum.

I have a m235i on order. Pretty much in the same boat as BRC... 9 year old Monte Carlo SS with ~99,000 miles and nothing immediately wrong with it, but starting to show its age.

Went with the Estoril Blue, after driving a black car for so long. I really like their Valencia Orange, but it's only available on the 228.

not sure If I told you but I have the similar chassis '08 135i in a champage ish - or maybe golden silver combined (it's a unique paint color) - black wheels - tinted, twin turbo. It's super fun little whip - I'll probably get it tuned and create an animal.

I wouldn't do a thing to it bud - maybe tint the side windows if they're not tinted. That's all i'd do though.

Wonder if they'll have it w/ Michelin Super sports? Also - when is it scheduled to arrive to you and how do you arrange pick up - does a dealer just call you and then you go get it - or what? How does that work?

Nice, I test drove a few small coupes and they're fun to drive, and it'll probably get better gas mileage than my current 305hp V8. Chevy has a ~450hp SS coupe that I considered, but there just wasn't any question after driving the 235.
