Adding to that, an M3 wagon would be awesome.

Also, an E46 M3 sedan. I'd drive one of those until I died.

A reliable E92 328i 6MT that didn't cost an arm and a leg to fix would be my perfect car.

E46 Coupe >>>>>>>>>>> Sedan. The E46 sedan remains my least favorite 3er, just had really odd proportions at the C-pillar and back.

Not that I'd get one, but why doesn't the Ford Explorer have the V6 Ecoboost as an option? Seems silly to me, although I am guessing it's a supplier issue or something, cuz it really is ridiculous for it not to be an option.

Not that I'd get one, either, but I always thought that a convertible FJ Cruiser with the 5.7L V8 would be a fun idea

Lexus revised the IS-F's suspension for the 2011MY to address the harshness and improve handling.

They may now be using less gravel in the mix but it still feels like concrete.
