Two cars that really been catching my attention lately are 2007-2008 BMW 335i (auto) Sport package and 2009 Cadillac CTS-V (auto). Both sedans, both F/I, both beautiful vehicles, both got balls.

stuff

BMW - lower initial cost, better depreciation long term, better initial build quality (probably) and in this case less high-tech to go wrong once you're out of warranty.

Additionally there are tons of BMW tuners / repair shops out there if you don't want to go to the dealer and lots of aftermarket stuff - with the Caddy you're probably stuck with the dealer or maybe a vette specialist.

Having said that - be prepared to be blown away by the over the road dynamics of the Cadillac - I know a couple of BMW guys who drove one on the track and they were very impressed.

And finally, for me anyway, I just haven't warmed up to the Caddy's looks - too much over the top boy racer for me.
