2006 / 2007 Infiniti M45 / m 45 Pros : - Powerful and smooth engine

- Smart-shifting automatic gearbox
- Stylish, roomy interior
- Tight handling Cons : - Not the most stand-out exterior styling
- Steering feel not the greatest

2006 / 2007 Mazda MAZDA SPEED 6 / Speed6 Pros : Tougher new look
Hyper inline turbo four
Lots of low-end torque
Stylish interior
All-wheel-drive handling Cons : May not have enough visual flash for some buyers
Most cannot see the difference between this and a normal 6
Only offered in sedan body style
Tires for those 18-inch rims will kill the wallet
Rear seat won't fit very tall people
