Hi,
first post, been a member since I nearly bought an M coupe late last year.
I've decided to buy another car in the next 4 weeks and they are currenlty 2 choices, an M coupe or a VX220 Turbo.
I have a few cars at present, an E39 M5, a F355 and a Saab 9-3 Aero (daily hack) so the next car will be an addition to the colletion.
I've always loved the M coupe and wanted one since they were released, I nearly bought one last year but decided to save for a few more months and buy the Ferrari.
I love the M5 and never want to part with it but it uses so much fuel on a fast drive, it did 12mpg last Sunday and emptied the £90 tank in 150miles. I want a car I can chuck a tent in and speed off to Scotland on a weekend or head to the ring and not have to fuel a 5.0l to do so. I'm well aware an M coupe is not an econimical car however it's not going to be in the same leauge as an M5.
The only thing which puts a question in my mind is do i really want to M cars when I have the oppertunity to run something completely differnet but get the same use out of i.e. a VX220 turbo.
If any one has any experience of both car's or some inspiration for me then I'd be really happy to hear from you.
Thanks very much, Richard.
