Totally random, but...

[b]What kind of car do you have? Do you like it?

What is your dream car and why?

What kind of car (realistically) would you replace your current car with? Why?[/b]

I have a 2010 VW Jetta sedan. I really like it, but the gas mileage is a disappointment. It is not the diesel model.

One day, I'd love to get a Range Rover Supercharged. I just like their rugged but refined appearance.

I'll probably replace my Jetta with a Toyota Prius. I like the quirky design and 50+ MPG doesn't hurt either! :)

I drive a Civic. I wouldn't replace it with anything except perhaps something a bit larger like a Camry or Avalon. But it suits me fine.

I got out of the "Dream car" mentality a while ago. A house is a place to live, a car is something to get me to my destination. Vacations are to relax and de-stress. Clothes are to cover the body. Money is to pay the bills. Power is something running in my electrical lines.

I don't have any interest in impressing others. Advising or mentoring or teaching others is always nice.

As someone said, there is no UHaul behind the hearse. He who dies with the most toys is dead.

There was a reason people like Gandhi or Mother Theresa appear serene/content, at least on the surface. Serving others is far more fulfilling than impressing others.

    I also am in the process of build up a new track car. 1995 BMW 318ti Clubsport. 1 of 249 built for the world, currently getting a built turbo s50 installed. should be a very reliable 400-450WHP and weigh in at about 2700lbs
