I have a friend that's a retired professional pilot, who is trading in a G36 Bonanza for a Cirrus. He knows his limits and sets hard boundaries for IFR flight. He's doing it because of his age and the ability to have his wife trained to deploy the chute in case of his incapacitation. I think his reasoning is sound for his situation.
I've never flown a Cirrus, but I've only spoken to one pilot that's flown them that likes them.
