Default What comes after your ISX50?

Okay, not to be premature here, but after having your ISX50, what do you think your next car will be? I love my IS350, but since I don't yet have a family, sometimes want something a little smaller, a little more nimble in the corners. Thing is, I don't know if I'll ever be able to go without the full package of performance and luxury this car comes with.

So vote in the poll and/or post up! Oh yeah, nothing wrong with keeping your IS forever either!

I was thinking about going the IS F/M3/C63/RS4 route when I am about to replace my IS350 in couple years. However after thinking about it more thoroughly now I am likely just to get another entry sports sedan and save up for a weekend/track car. Most likely a Z06.

C6 LS3 6spd. Perfect blend of daily driver and formidable track car. I would love an IS-F or Z06, sadly they are a little out of my price range.

Depending on how much money I have after buying this lease out for a daily driver, either a C5 Z06 or a C6 Z06. Probably gonna be the C5Z, just because I plan on ripping the car apart and installing a cage, minitub, nice adjustable shocks, BBK, Rockland Gear Tranzilla Jr, and a Warhawk 427 in it. It'll be good for 10s on a drag radial and decimate on the road course.
