Need suggestion

so...im about to be a father, and looking to sell my GT-R and get a e90 M3, anyone wanna talk me out of it? and have a better suggestion? please let me know

reason 1. I miss BMW too much, Nissan is CRAP(Nonetheless its a super fast car and I will miss the accelration)
reason 2. Everyday Driveability is good on the M3
reason 3. It has backseats that will actually be useable.
reason 4. I miss stick shift too much.

Alternative options Im looking at

e92 m3 (looks too similar to my old e92 335i though)
e93 m3(wondering how much ill get to get the top down in NY)
M5 (my grl has a 535i so i dont know if its worth it)
996 911 Turbo (wish i can get the 997 but cannot afford it)

btw, i will keep my acura RDX for work commuting purposes and snow duties.

Price, fun, space for fam., reliability = E90 M3. Good choice. Now, if you're talking new M5 and budget isn't a problem, M5 FTW!

Amen. M5ftw.

OP..if you your priority is going to be family I would stick with the E90 over the E92. I've owned both M3s and my current E90 is far more practical when you involve more than 2 people.
