Default Own both an S5 + BMW M3 .. or RS5 ?

Those of you who have a 2010/2011 S5, would you trade-in your S5 for $48K-$50K and add $40K-$42K to get a brand new $90K 2013 RS5? Or would you rather keep your S5 and use the $40K-$42K to get a 2nd-hand 2007-2008 BMW M3 (one car for touring, and the other for tracking)?

My S5 is a 2012, but if I was going to trade it, I would go for an RS5 unless, of course, the 2nd gen. Acura NSX is available. I'm already on a waiting list for one of those. Very little chance there's an M3 in my future.

RS5 without hesitation! No need in two cars if one does it all.

RS5 definately for me. The soundtrack is awesome, 4WD, and blistering pace. Unless your gonna do power slides around a track with an M3, the RS5 wins hands down.
