You are going to love the RV-10 and have a 40 year + newer airplane to boot for less than the cost of the J-35 and upgrading the panel of the J-35 to be in the general price range of your RV-10.

N710RV - First Flight 7/28/06
I own and fly a 4 seat 1958 J-35 Bonanza. It has a 260 hp Continental
IO-470-N and is a good airplane. BUT, with four adults and 20 lbs of
luggage each, I can only carry about 25 gallons of fuel! Gross weight
and aft CG problem. I have GAMI injectors and run LOP and can get
about 165 knots TAS on 11.5 gph. I think the RV-10 handily beats the
Bonanza on all of those counts. The complexity and expense of
retractable gear, the time consuming annual (we do our own annuals),
and the expense of Raytheon parts are another downside. It has been a
great airplane and my wife and I have traveled to both coasts and
lots of places in between in it, but we are really looking forward to
our RV-10.
