The Lexus IS500. I know it's not as fast or "spirited" or technologically advanced as an M340i or a C43. But I love the styling, the reliability, and the naturally aspirated V8. I've been talking my wife's ear off about it and saving up for a while now. I'm hoping maybe in December I can snag one.
Best of luck on picking one up! I rather like the design of the IS500, and of the previous generation IS (2006ish?). My only problem with the IS was its price compared to its performance. How can you charge so much for a sub-300hp V6? Then they put the V8 from the LC500 in the IS and it made much more sense to me.
I don't know anything about the way it handles, but if it's anything like the way it looks, it should be a fun ride.
Thanks!
