What about the Michelin Sport PS2? What does everyone think about that tire?
On tirerack.com there are tons of good reviews on that tire.

I have a set of PS2s on my M35 and I love them. They are the best tires I have ever owned. They are pricey but worth every penny!!!

I went with the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus:

245/40/19 front
275/35/19 rear

I bought these from Costco for $1300, including installation, nitrogen and road hazard protection...

So far I can honestly say they are much better OVERALL than the OEMs... wet traction is far superior, and dry is almost as good... I did manage to have a little slip while in 3rd gear once (which I never did with the OEMs... I dont know what happened... I tried recreating it again and I couldnt!!!)

They are substantially more quiet than the OEMs (although this could be due to the OEMs being worn and noisy).

They feel like they absorb everything much better (bumps/highway junction points).

They look a lot meaner than the OEMs (I like their thread pattern for whatever reason).

They have a 45k mile warranty on them and 500 tread rating (hopefully they will last me for another 1 1/2 years until my lease is up).

I would buy them again if the tread wear is what they say it is...
