Ok,

Dont' care about purchase price right now, avionics, etc. Looking for
performance/maintenance/operating costs/issues people know of.

If cost isn't a factor, buy a Cirrus.

English really is a strange language. What I read was that he wanted
to first consider factors other than cost, not that cost wasn't a
factor.

Buy the 2-volume Airplane Buyer's Guide from Aviation Consumer. Well
worth the $75 or so considering how much you can lose with a bad
decision.

High level pros/cons of just about any older GA airplane currently
available.

For new, I'd consider the pressurized Columbia 400 or Lanceair IVP -
check out TAP for used models available. But now you're getting up in
the $$$$ price levels.

Paul,

I'd consider the pressurized Columbia 400


Which pressurized Columbia 400? There is no such thing. The 400 is
turbocharged.

The six cylinder thingies.

Newps,

Which pressurized Columbia 400?

The six cylinder thingies.


Huh? There is NO pressurized version of the Columbia aircraft.

Perhaps someone is confusing this with the Lancair IV? An aviation
acquaintance of mine is seriously considering purchasing a pressurized IV.
