E46 M3 CS
Monaro VXR500 (or equivalent)
Z4M Coupe
Audi RS4 (Bi-Turbo) Avant
....need more requirements. Running costs an issue? Image important? Performance required? Size/Seats needed?
Cheers,
Grant

RS6 would worry me slightly.. the suspension and gearbox issues aren't cheap if/when they go wrong and not sure that it'd be that great to drive once the straight line performance novelty had started to wear off.
That said, I've always had a soft spot for a Misano Red RS6 Avant.
