What car have you been obsessing about this week?

I love cars I'm always thinking of what to get next etc....(even though I won't)

Today I was obsessing about this: C63 507 coupe with porcelain leather.

I've been hunting for a replacement for my 428i. I'm bored of it. To be honest I have regretted changing from my 335d a year ago.

I'm in negative equity with my BMW by about 3k but after seeing the Ford Mustang at my local dealer in the flesh, I am going back next weekend to show the wife and put down a deposit. It looks stunning and the interior was surprisingly decent. Plus the 5L V8 and sounds stunning. Unfortunately couldn't drive it as they haven't registered it yet but I'm having one.

£7k deposit, £475/month 36m PCP. Not a penny of discount going!

With a 13 month waiting list though it'll be a looooonggg wait though!!!

Off to see a Mustang on the 16th.

May or may not road test it.

However, have to think about my dog, so likely will have to stick with just a 340i Tourer.

So cars for this week, Mustang, F31 340i, C63 Estate.

M3 would get my vote. But both look great!

Great thread. I could run this on my own without any other members input.

I'd better register my updates with week No.s

So Week 49 and yes currently just obsessing over the new born 335D due next week. This week that is all.

Ah yes, a most misleading post from me in excitement.

Due to build next week actually driving it might be a 2016 experience.

Ah, that makes more sense! Still that will be here before you know it. Enough to keep you occupied with Xmas etc...

Honestly don't get BSM...hides all the M unique lines plus the effort to clean.

Please don't do it.

Gone off the idea of a Macan, Chris..?

My dreams are still Stuttgart fuelled, I have to admit... Even though, really, those days are gone now for me.... The Cayman GT4 looks good in the flesh (have seen 3 different ones on last few months) and I certainly wouldn't mind having a play in one... I also saw a new GT3 RS the other week (I hope I didn't leave too much drool on it).... Wow..!!!
