M550 lease end. What's next? Any input??

Based upon all the data points you provided, the decision is simple. A wide body Hellcat Charger. 717 hp for less than the 550, menacing stance, comfortable seats and surprisingly has most of the modern features, except LED headlights.

I've had a bunch of Corvettes. Great bang for the buck. But it's still a plastic Chevy.

I won't even consider a C8 because I like that third pedal.

I've had seven Corvettes, my last a C6 Z06. I would not buy a new one for the same reason. I'd love to pickup one of the last Shelby GT350s, but it just doesn't fit my current fianancial planning. But I have a few much faster motorcycles so I'm not complaining

Those GT350's are awesome. I had a chance to drive my friend's through some mountain/canyon roads and the exhaust was intoxicating. Handling was excellent, the shifter was great, clutch is surprisingly light (first item he modded) and the steering is excellent (he has an earlier model with the older rack). Honestly it mixes a lot of things from the E92 M3 and the regular Mustang together really well.

If budget is not an issue, take a look at the Audi RS7.

Oddly enough I have driven one as well. It is owned by the service manager at my BMW dealer
