Thinking of buying a new fun or daily driver
I am not sure what to do to be honest with you. I want to pull the trigger on buying another car. It's been years since I have owned a 350z and now I have a Jeep Wrangler as my daily driver and a high horsepower 3000GT VR-4 project that should be done before spring. I would love to buy a used BMW M6, but i don't feel like spending $50k+ on a car. Here is what I was thinking of getting and the price ranges I am looking at.
1) used 2001-2003 BMW M5 between $16k-$20k
2) used 2006 BMW M5 between $38k-$42k
3) used 2003-2005 Nissan 350z between 12k-15k
4) Save my money, and save for something down the road like a new house in a year or so.
The 3000GT VR-4 will not be an everyday car and I feel the Jeep Wrangler is kinda wearing on me a bit. I don't think the Jeep Wrangler is appropriate for those long trips with the girlfriend that we like to do and I feel like we have been using her car more frequently to go out then my Jeep. So, what do you guys think I should do?

Do you have a house already? If not, and you're living in an apartment, by all means, save for a house!
If you do have a house thats nice, you could get a fun car, I mean, everyone's gotta have hobbies, just don't go outside your means.

Whoops. I guess I need to update that. I used to own a 350z, better yet I leased it at one point and sold it for profit to a private owner at the end of the lease. Now I have that itch to pull the trigger on something but I also want to buy a house. So, I'm trying to decide. I saw a few "affordable" cars that caught my eye.
