So, the Gallardo is a no go




This has always been a huge dilemma for me as well - even though we have two cars, the wife and kids have always insisted that even though 95% of the time I drive my car alone, that there must be 5 seats in my car as well - it really limits your choice of cars if you are a sports-oriented driver (for me it has been Impreza Sti, BMW M3, 147 GTA, Alpina B3S - all 5 seaters).

Though you may not be interested in such vehicles, at your price point, the M5 is an absolute wild ride and has plenty of room for 5, the Quattroporte, is less wild, but makes up for it with it's sheer beauty. The new Alpina B5S is also a very interesting car, far more than the early B5 (much more power, faster shift transmission)...
