Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?

Tvad, does that apply to you as well?

No question about it. I am Cup-O-Noodles incarnate.

However, I struggle with the decision to purchase a vehicle that helps the environment and our nation, and one that makes me believe I can still lay any 22 year old I wish.

Grant, perhaps there should have been a smiley face at the end of my post :^).

I remembered you for the Corvette and could not resist.

I loved that Corvette. Ultimately, I sold it because the roof seals heavily leaked water when it rained due to environmental heating and cooling cycles. Sold it to buy a BMW 330i.

Ironically, there are very nice deals currently on two or three year old Corvettes. Yet, I keep eyeing Honda Civics.

I had my eye on a Honda Pilot, the best equipped model. This was to replace my GMC Yukon which was a very good vehicle (NO problems at 5 years old), but the lease was expiring.

When I discovered the Honda was more than a new GMC (about $40,000.00 for the Touring model with Navigation). I bought a used BMW X5 with four years of total warranty and service contract.

This kind of service contract is with BMW, not an independent warranty company and covers EVERYTHING, even brake pads and hoses. The BMW was about $5K less than the Honda, so I went for it.

I know it's sacrilege, but honestly I would have been happy with another GMC, a Chevy Tahoe, a Honda Pilot Touring or the BMW. Guess I'm getting old :^).
