Since size is an issue due to future family plans leave the ISF and the C63 alone, they're to small for car seats. Stick with the E class CTS (check the rear room for this one too) STS/ 5 Series/ A6 /GS/ G37 etc.

Ya, I guess the C-class is too small, that rules out the AMG C... The AMG E-class will probably be too expensive...
So, that leaves:
550i
LS 460
A6
CTS-V
E-Class
Still leaning towards the 550i... Although the A6 is mighty sweet looking...
In the end, it may depend on what deals on buying/leases the dealers have in Dec/Jan...

If you don't want to drop $75K+ on a C63 AMG...I would also look into the Mercedes E550 if you like the Mercedes styling. They start at $50K and move nicely...very comprable to the IS350 in terms of performance but a good amount larger. It is a nice car. I saw one in person at the dealer a while back. GL!

LS 460- like posted before, you'll need bigger rims
A6- chip it, all-wheel drive monster or consider an S4
CTS-V- a BEAST... but... electrical problems and new GM solvency grumblings
E-Class- seats are rocks, otherwise beautiful
With other cars in your stable, do you need winter traction? Based on your above, A6 wins
Topic says it all... My lease is up the first week of December... What should my next car be?
I want a 4 door, with power and good looks... Was thinking about getting a 5 series... What's new and exciting that will be avail in December? Also, I can wait until next year (Jan, feb, whatever) as I have other cars to drive in the meanwhile...
On a side note, I am considering selling my IS350 to try and make some profit as the residual is $25.5k but it seems that I may be able to sell it for more than that...
