The subject of new cars comes up entirely too often here. I would love something as everyday as a GTI that drives as nice as the Miata, but more comfortably, that has AWD, but doesn't cost as much as a BMW or come with the attitude. I've driven a few of them, and need to drive more.
- MINI I've driven at least four of these including the new turbo 3 cylinder. I have not driven the new BMW-based 4 cylinder turbo Mini-S. I really want to want one, but just don't like the way they drive enough to get motivated to send the money.
- Miata: with that new suspension, it is a real blast to drive within the speed limit. No AWD. Ours is a bit beat, old, rattley and brings reliability fears.
- Tesla S 70: WOW!
- Tesla 3: N/D
- WRX: fast, and a bit bad boy, I got stared down by a waitng cop at the beginning of my test drive. As they say, the turbo is either on or off.
- GTI: I drove it later the same day. Beautiful car. The turbo is smooth and the DSG is great. No AWD, a bit dorky.
- CX3, besides being a cute-ute, it drove very nicely, if a bit underpowered. Mandy loved the toys, but not the weak SUVness of it.
- BMW 2-series: N/D
- BMW 3-series: ....can I submit to the car that turns people into assholes?
- Miata ND is supposed to bring the excitement back to the "chick car" that the NC lost.
- Mazda3 iSport 2.0
- Mazda3 s Touring 2.5. Get real. This is the car. Not quite as much power as the GTI, and no turbo to make up for Denver's altitude, but given what I've seen in the CX-3, it should be awesome.
- Subaru BRZ?
- BMW K1200RS
- BMW F800RS
