Default Suggestions please!

I asked this yesterday, but I didn't get enough answers, what would you guys and gals get besides the TT or what other cars in say the $60-70K Canadian or $40+American price range? Really like the TT, but what else should I consider? Any thing new coming out that I should consider? Please people, I need a new toy and I can't decide! Keep in mind this has to be a daily driver. Thanks

What are your priorities/preferences? A little more to go on would help.

Default Where are you in Canada. If you need year round driving, you might need Quattro!

I looked at:

Mercedes SLK
Porsche Boxster
BMW 3-series (they have AWD)
and BMW Z3.

The Audi Coupe + set of winter tires won hands down.

Default Sorry guys, some more info

I'm going from an Slk230. I all but signed the papers on an X5, but just can't do it. I like a quick car with good handling, but I guess the AWD would come in use. I live in Vancouver, Canada and we don't live in igloos and aren't covered in ice, but it in the winters, it rains a lot, with a couple of days of snow. My Slk was fine in the rain but still like to have the assurance for when I go skiing. Have looked into the 3 series, but soooooo many people have one. I like the S4s but I don't know if they are going to change styles. I know the A4s will. Does anyone have any pics?
I have driven the new C-class. Nice car if your an old man. What else should I consider? What else is coming out? Thanks guys

How about the new A4 3.0 litre Quattro? Excellent car with good performance.

Have you test driven an Allroad? Might be worth checking out.

Default Here in Ottawa, we live in igloos 6 months a year... looks like you have looked at most car options

If you want a BMW that is not as common, you could also look at the BMW M coupe, I don't see too many on the roads (actually, I don't think I have seen one!)

I read that BMW is coming out with the X3 in 2004 (but that's a few years out still).
