Never been a big fan of BMW but will look into it.

Was looking at the re-designed CLS63 which looks pretty good, but I just got out of another CLS63 a year ago before hopping into the Panny. Rapide is a great looking car but I don't think it'll hold up well against daily driving...

FF will be replaced by the 458 spyder in a month or so.

Thanks for the feedback Marc. I looked at the GTS version which seems pretty sporty...but I guess reliability is a big issue.
I sure don't recall QP's having as many issues as what's being stated... Not to mention it's pretty silly to judge off of one or two cars. If that were the case I could tell you about some super shitty Porsches, including a 997 GT3 which couldn't stop pissing oil even after the factory tried to fix it.
Reliability has gone up a lot since getting rid of the DuoSelect. There are a lot of shared components with the GranTurismo so someone who DD's a Mas of that generation (like UBC) could offer some solid feedback.
I am not wild about their Bose stereo interface (I find it hard to use) or the seats (they could be more supportive) but other than that I think they are awesome cars. They are a lot more stimulating than a Pcar, then again, most Italians are in comparison to German cars.
The QP GTS is awesome. Has all the carbon, big brakes, better suspension and sport exhaust of the GranTurismo S. I wouldn't hesitate to have that as a daily.
