That guy, as I recall, let the magic time pass and when he finally got his car the spark was no longer there (everyone who has been on this board a while can remember that sad, sad thread and the ball-busting that went with it). The truth is that the vast and overwhelming majority of us absolutely love our cars. They are a treat in every way -- even when they are "misbehaving." Don't let time pass you by. Bone up on the different cars, sit in them, drive them if you can, and then just buy one. I will throw out one general rule, and that is "the more you spend the happier you'll be." But don't go broke doing it; remember, these are just toys for kids who never managed to grow up.
