Unhappy I cannot decide on a new car :(

Okay, first of all, i am REALLY picky. I will give you the model, and why I like and don't like it. I'm probably going to decide by the end of typing this thread with all my +'s and -'s lol!

I want RWD, 6spd man, and electronic goodies. (bluetoof, heated seats, nice factory sound system, etc. etc.) basically a nice Grand Touring car.

The List:
#1 Infiniti G37 Coupe
Pros - Cheapest, Premium package has EVERYTHING, seats 4, 6spd, rwd, nice brakes, handles awesome. Warranty, limited slip diff.
Cons - Gas mileage, kinda heavy

#2 BMW 335 Coupe
Pros - Twin turbo, its a BMW, 6spd, rwd. good handling. Warranty
Cons - ATLEAST $6k more than G37 similarly equipped. no LSD

#3 2005 M3 Competition Package
Pros - Its an M car, 6spd, rwd, etc. etc.
Cons - A 2005 is the price of 2008 Infiniti, Insurance, gas mileage, repairs out of warranty. Dated styling.

#4 2008 Subaru Sti
Pros - Pocket rocket
Cons - Price is insane, mileage totally blows, i dont think AWD is for me.

#5 BMW 135i
Pros - Twin turbo, Lighter and cheaper than 335i.
Cons - Fugly and small.

So basically the G37 Coupe is my best bet? Best bang for the buck thats for sure.

I guess I just need to know if ya'll think its a nice car? I need some support! hahaha

thnx!
