I won't be leasing this vehicle, numbers don't make sense, so it'll be a check or loan depending on the numbers (and I truly don't get why the bureaucratic financing mechanism would be relevant to anyone in getting excited about a car - maybe you guys can explain that one? Yay, these papers not those?  );
and trying something else would fine, but I"m not willing to go to any unique lengths to do it because I truly am only mildly excited about the X5M, nothing else - though, as I mentioned, I don't know what I don't know but, again, right now with this vehicle, figuring out if that's true or not isn't really worth much to me.

I agree with the getting old part and it affecting the car passion thing. I honestly don't know what my dream car is either anymore. I think a 911 GTS next to the Cayman would be about as good as it gets. There really are no Lambos or Ferraris that do much for me. Maybe a McLaren.........but here is where the old part comes in, I don't know where the eff I'd drive the thing or feel comfortable parking it etc. I know you could say that about Porsches etc but they don't seem as in your face as those other brands. I could be wrong on that. I'm sure I'd change my mind once I drove one though.
Arcades, maybe its the getting old thing to affecting this opinion as well. I think the GT or bust when it comes to Porsches is way overhyped. Even their base 2.0 T Cayman/Boxster are blast to drive. Same with a base 911 even if it doesn't come with an LSD, more oddly they don't offer it in a manual. For my old and apparently more conservative car ass the GTS is the sweet spot for me on nearly every Porsche model. Don't get me wrong, I love the GT cars but don't pine for them like I used to.
