congrats on the baby
good choice with M5 and just bought one a month ago , actually it is faster in straight line than my .2 RS
only complaint , it needs more emotions
check E63 , as I had an E63 before M5 and I think the emotional connection is a little better
so it will be your preference between the two

Congrats on the baby! You'll be back in the not too distant future.
Also, on a side note, this is a MUCH MUCH more logical reason for selling than that of most others (cough cough....flippers....cough cough.....shmee150.....cough cough).

Thank you! Definitely didn't purchase this one to flip. I wanted a PDK w/ the big wing.. was built just for me.

Life is about priorities. You made the right choice.

I can attest to this. We did the same thing. Had one from 8 years old to 12 or 13 IIRC. There is no automotive pride when you have little ones. Its all about practicality. Odyssey was and probably still is the best mini van. Your priorities will change. Congrats.

Honda Odyssey is the _ONLY_ choice when one has little ones - trust me on this - you'll need it until they are about 12 years old - once you have it you realize how good it is for your needs - but many many people resist.

the Odyssey is sooo functional and can hold SOOOOO much stuff - it really really spoils you for other family haulers - but it's a car that shows it's value after owning for a while and actually living with it (and kids and their needs) - it's easy to dismiss on a test drive.
good luck and congratulations on the growing family!

Mercedes GL/GLS - Huge (enough) but with better style, bad weather, comfort, solid feel, etc...
M5 is pretty small really...

I hung onto my first Boxster when # 1 arrived, 2003. I took her to school in the Boxster most days. Upgraded to a Carrera when #2 arrived. Kept hanging on when #3 & #4 arrived.
Last year I brought home a Touring, and one thing I miss is the ability to carry more than 1 passenger.
Anyway I'm sure you'll be back.
Porsche posted my video a few years back, here's to more kids.
