I vote you find a 2011 or 2012 G37S 6MT with low miles and CPO and budget yourself enough extra money for a stillen supercharger (factory installed will maintain your extended warranty).

Bluetooth streaming - check
As good or better car - check

whats your budget?
Lexus RC-F- if you can handle the looks of the front end although many like it.
I would say RC but its a bit underpowered for my taste.

or Audi RS5

the Bluetooth streaming issue can be fixed easily for less than $150. I bought a third party unit that is compatible with my 08 non-nav G37 and it works great with no issue streaming music from my phone.

Nissan Infiniti 02-11 Bluetooth Hands Free Car Adapter Kit - SAT Emulation

With this unit, I use the stock Bluetooth function for phone calls and the adapter for music. It is very streamline and straightforward install. very easy.

Part of the rice package. Comes with a debadged straight from factory cause Infiniti doesn't want to be associated with it.

I thought I needed an "upgrade" and went with a Q50. Biggest mistake ever. New tech doesn't always = better.

Yes, bluetooth audio is nice. I use it all the time. But the 'fun' factor is gone. Car feels stale. No soul, no character.

Lease is up in 6 months. I'm still not sure what car to get.

If a four door sleeper floats your boat - the Chevy SS is a monster. V8 - 415 HP and 415 tourques. very few people have one and it certainly is a stand out. Oh and it's not American - it's Australian. Compares very well with the M5.

Good point on being Australian. I omitted the SS because its a 4 door. But still, LS V8, RWD, 6mt, brembos, magnetic ride control for like 47k msrp is a nice option.

Why you mad the supposedly fail wheel drive equates the 'pinnacle lengedary' e46 m3 csl and faster than an awd lambo and a rwd z06 around the ring. That's pretty sad if you get beat by a ricey slushbox fail wheel drive civic.
