Sorry, I just saw this. I am an Anesthesiologist. In 2002 I was a lowly resident and now push forward 7 years and I'm in private practice. A couple of good years coupled with the recession have put me in the position to buy a car I never thought I'd be able to get. I figure I might as well go big now because who knows what the future brings.

Yep... seems like a good field to be in. My cousin-in-law studied to be an anesthesiologist. A couple years in private practice, then opened up some sort of consulting firm w/ a couple of partners. Now he's looking at buying a private island off the east coast somewhere. Not too shabby, if ya ask me.

I thought about this the other day and i came to the conclusion, if i were to get a new car tomorrow, and it had to be a DD, and i could spend up to 30k.. i would get a
Used:
Alpine White Z4M Coupe
or
White 370z
or a New Rio CR

I love the looks of the M coupe but i hate the reputation you get for driving one

If i had endless money, i would get a CLK63 Black for my DD and an Exige S260 for a weekend/track toy

If I happen to replace my IS350 with something, there is only one thing I am sure about, and that is it MUST be a pure sports car, so candidates are:

Next generation Mazda MX-5
Nissan 370Z
Nissan GT-R if I win some kind of lottery
Honda's next sports car if they make one and it is under $40k
The rumored upcoming Subayota or Toyobaru sports car if it looks very good

6 more months to pay of my S, then I am going to get a Silverado SS or Lightning. Haven't made up my mind yet.

Nissan GT-R? I thought you said pure sports car.
