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?

2018 Subaru Forester. Last year available with a manual transmission.  (I'm not sure I've ever owned an automatic transmission car -- and I'm an old geezer who's been driving for a long, long time.) Forester sometimes feels like a luxury car compared to my previous daily driver (which I certainly still have) -- a Porsche 993, which was also my track car (with a homemade roof rack to carry my racing tires), but as impractical as you might imagine for grocery shopping, etc. Even my Ferrari 512TR is more practical than the 993, at least as far as cargo carrying.  Previously had many Audis -- S4s and S6.  And others, not generally as interesting, except for my 944.
