Trouble is if you sell the CS, what the heck do you get with 4 doors than can live up to it and that does not cost more?

I agree. Look for a used Honda or Toyota sedan or SUV between $10-$15K. You'll lose that much selling your Cayman S anyway.

335i sedan with forged wheels, coilovers, Quaife, ECU tuning, and big brake kit. While it will not "live up to it" it will be as close as you can get and faster at most tracks.

And I happen to have the first 2 in the list for sale

I suspect an M3 sedan would be a pretty good alternative.

Wow.......... I feel for you...........

You will loose so much in depreciation........

'02-03 M5. Great deals out there and some even have extended warranties through 2010-11. No doubt it's a different type of car but considering the luxury/space you get, the performance and handling is fantastic.

The M3/335i are nice but don't quite have the room of the M5 if a 4-door is really the solution to selling the CS.

Damn, everybody is suggesting BMW, unfortunately. Sorry but I find them just too ugly for me, esp the grille and the side creases.

Was going to quote you, but thought it would be better to capture this, is this number legal on these boards

Anyway, in reply, I'd say that although I agree about most BMW, but IMHO, the M3 and the M5 stand out of the crowd, just my

Still, I'd suggest either keep the CS and get a cheap sedan, or go for an M3 just make sure you change the brakes if u track it

I agree. If I couldn't keep my S4 and the Cayman, I'd be all over the RS4.
