I'm just specific in what I like. American luxury cars are pretty far behind their european counterparts when it comes to materials and fit/finish. While I don't care about that stuff as much when I'm driving a venerable muscle car, I do care about it when I'm paying for luxury and end up with a lawn chair on wheels. I would like to find a car I don't want to sell. I didn't even like the 99 very much but kept it for 2 years.
Buying a manual again was a mistake. Buying a red car because I was tired of keeping a black one clean was a mistake, especially now that I've got a garage. Black interior was a mistake, and I knew I was probably going to regret that when I was buying it, but I was still in a foxbody mindset and I was being impatient, and just thankful it wasn't fucking grey.
I want something subtle, that will only stand out to people who like cars. When I was in Florida I couldn't put gas in that thing without someone wanting to talk to me about it, and while that is flattering, I am just not that type of person who wants to talk to people all the time, and frankly I don't give a shit what most of the mouthbreathers I encounter on a daily basis think about what I drive. In fact, I'm starting to think that trying to be nicer in the last year is actually backfiring and it is making me even more violently angry than I used to be.
Sorry, Craig hijacked my laptop.
