      I actually have but I felt embarrassed as hell each time.

      I’m not against fine tuning and efficiency. I am against A: “LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!!!” And B: any sort of aggressive driving on public roads.

      If there were such a thing a really ‘nice’ car that was ‘luxurious’ inside etc., but looked like absolutely nothing extraordinary outside, then I might buy one (in the alternative universe where I had lots of money to blow on new cars).

        It’s pretty funny because personally I don’t care at all about comfort and very little about looks. I just want something that’s fun to drive. If I had the money, Id get maybe a Subaru BRZ, it’s not too powerful but lightweight. But I live in France so I dont need a car either way

        Well I for one hope that you manage to get lots of money (or enough to be completely comfortable) in this universe.

          That’s very kind of you. I’m not starving and have a secure roof so I’m doing better than many others around the world. I am certainly not complaining in regards to that.

          When I have day dreams of winning millions of dollars my first thoughts are typically “how could I help others”.

          I would have to actually play the lottery though, which I’m not inclined to do.
