Would you consider an Infiniti g37 convertible ? It’s sporty, has 4 seats and looks great IMO.

The tesla is great yet somehow boring, right? I still love it, but almost as if it's too dialed in. I don't have the desire to change anything on it - it just works great. I don't read the tesla forums. I just use it as an appliance. It's the new Honda Accord... that goes 0-60 in 4.1 seconds.
Regarding being bored... Seriously, can you build a garage? Somewhere? Garage = game changer. I spent the last couple weekends working on my truck suspension and it was fun. Unfortunately I can really only fit one car in the garage at a time, so while the truck was in there I couldn't charge the tesla. I didn't really think that one through. ![]() |

So...my takeaway here is that you are definitely suggesting that I get a 928. The garage thing is a constant annoyance. It is one of the reasons I would move, and I have been thinking about that. And, yeah, I do think it would be fun to be able to wrench on a car, esp now that the kids are older. But finding the right place in the right school district is...challenging. |

Exchanging from your house to a house of similar value would probably cost around $100k. Assuming that you could find a house you like without spending lots on top.

A garage, standing alone, would be...150? Probably closer to 200 when you factor in work we'd want to do at the same time (i.e., repurposing the existing "garage" as living space.) EDIT: IDK if I really want another E46 M3, but what are the details on that one? |
