Should I do it?

I'm crazy for considering this....but I'm seriously thinking of trading my recently purchased 07 BMW 335i for the new Z.

Problem with the BMW is that it's just not a very engaging driving experience. I don't commute and can walk to work if I so choose, so a car is just entertainment for me.

However the Z is very noisy at speed (had an 03 track version when they first came out, lots of road noise from the tires). I believe my wife will have issues when it comes to vacation travel.

Banging my head on the roof upon entry will be no fun either. I'm a big guy.

Plus the car sounds better on the outside than the inside.

Cons aside.....the cars a blast to drive. And that's what it's all about.

I'll need to trade the bimmer in for it though. Do car dealers except even trades?

cheers
