lollllllllllll....bonanza...the original doctor killer. now the cirrus is the new doctor killer. if you're going to jump up to big boy airplanes, I'd say learn in a low wing such as a warrior/Cherokee, then go to the other high performance low wings. then again, buying a cirrus or a bonanza isn't a smart thing at all to begin with. I learned on low wings...but bought a 172. owned that for a while...then decided it was too costly, and it would be significantly cheaper to own an old Ferrari, several porsches, and other cars. HA!
