What's going to be your next car?
I don't care for the current ES in many ways, but I'm with you to an extent. The new ES looks a lot more my speed than the last gen. I doubt I'd actually buy it, but I will say I've never been more attracted to it than I am now.
If Alfa Romeo can offer a CPO on a used Giulia, and they can be had for the low-mid $30's, I don't think I could pass that up. They'd have to fix the "brake by wire" garbage that a lot of people are complaining about too. I did some research just now and it turns out they are now offering a 5 years - 75k miles, 3 years free service, and 5 years of "breakdown" coverage. The original warranty was pretty bad. These cars aren't know for their reliability, but maybe they can get all the kinks ironed out in a few years. I absolutely love the way they look. 280hp is honestly pretty disappointing, and the Quadrifoglio will still be out of my price range used, so maybe they will update the Ti powertrain soon to at least 300.
If Lexus offers a 4th gen IS, I'd also highly consider one. But I think with the current SUV/Crossover culture, that may not happen.

I'm looking mainly at the G70, C43 AMG perhaps if I can find a good CPO deal, possibly the S4, or just getting a CPO IS 350 preferably RWD F Sport. I am honestly not all that sure what I want anymore. Lots of interesting options though.
I agree with you, not sure what I want anymore. I think I am going to keep my 350 F sport and continue to rack up the miles as daily and possibly buy used GT-R down the road. But then again there are many options out there.
A new IS350 next for the long haul or an ISF if they make it. Decided against the RCF, don't want a CPO performance car where owners are adding Nitrous and other crap to and then pass on back to the dealer.
