And yeah, considering you'll have 2 nice cars for youself if you buy the M5, you dont really have a leg to stand on to turn her down. So I say throw caution to the wind and get it! After a few months you might find that you're not using a particular car in the fleet anymore and can get rid of it as well. My prediction would be the GTI, but who knows.
By all accounts the GTI would be the odd car out. But I'd hate selling a car that has been good and we've had since new. I rather just gift it to the kids even if it means having an extra car we don't really need for a couple of years.
