If I were going to buy a car soon – which I’m not – but if I were, which one would it be? I’m obsessed with this question. I like to think about these hypothetical situations.
My first choice would be a 2006 (current generation) Mazda MX-5 (aka Miata). This car is fun to drive, reliable, sporty and not very expensive. This current generation is larger, heavier, rides smoother, but till has that sports car feel – I would imagine. I hope to test drive one.
My second choice would be a Honda S2000. I got a chance to drive one of these and it was great, except for a slippery back end. T his car looks great! It’s pure sports car – maybe more that I really want. I like this car because it’s unique. It preforms like a Porsche but runs like a Honda and costs around 1/2 as much.
My third choice is a Nissan 350Z. If I were to chose one with a fixed roof, this would be it. I like it because it reminds me of the original 240z which I have liked for many years. It’s the new Porsche 911 – besides, I can’t afford a 911.
I like the Porsche Boxter, but from what I have read, I get the feeling it would be very expensive to own. Plus I would have to buy an older car.
What are your thoughts? Feel free to email me.
If you are very wealthy and would like to buy one of these for me, let me know. If you do, please pay the insurance on it so that I can have 2 cars for a while.
