What do you drive and why?


Just got a 2019 Subaru Forester. Had a 2012 till someone decided to T-bone me on the drivers side. The car held up very well to the impact. Walked away even though the damage was such insurance called it a total loss. Safety was a main consideration in getting the new one, plus the AWD system, improved mileage and reliability of the brand. Had an older Honda CRV (2006) and almost bought another, great small SUV.
So what do you drive and why?

Great thread!  Im a car nut for sure.  I’ve been blessed to be around, and own, many different cool cars in my life.  Too many to mention but a few I’ve owned are Bmw M3, Audi S4, GTI, Rx-7, Boxster, Gsxr 1000 (ran a 10.9 @137), Gsxr 750, CBR 900rr and too many more.  Some stand out moments in ride alongs were in a 1200 hp M3 and a 1400 hp Evo that literally took the breathe away from me (knocked the wind out of me).  

I am really a German car enthusiast.  I love all things Porsche and if I had the $, I’d have a 10 car garage full of nothing but them.

Cars for me have always been sport.  I prefer riding my Spot Rocker mountain bike in town in order to get around.  I can go as fast as I want, get exercise, not have to deal with traffic and I blow off all kinds of steam while having an absolute blast.

Oh, and my current car is a 2009 Mini Cooper S with the factory Harmon Kardon Stereo with copious amounts of dynamat installed streaming tidal off my iphone through a drogonfly red dac / jitterbug into the aux port.  It sounds really good!
