[QUOTE="DaveStebbins, post: 2248577, member: 1427"] Xath - congrats on getting a new car and a great deal! It wasn't why I [i]bought [/i]the car, it made the final difference between the two choices I had narrowed it down to. I had done my homework and looked at what I wanted, what I needed, what I could afford, what I wanted to pay, prices, discounts, reliability, Consumer Reports ratings, test drives, how I felt about the dealers, the whole deal. But when it came down to the choosing between the final two, I figured being loyal to my favorite F1 team was better than a coin flip. I wasn't like I was a fan of Michael Schumacher so I decided to buy a Ferrari. And in the end, is it any worse than buying a car you think is cool, or a car that you think makes you look good, or one that establishes your status? How many people really need those expensive SUVs and pickup trucks? How many SUVs never leave pavement, how many pickups never really haul anything, does anyone really [i]need [/i]a sports car or a luxury car? I bought a car I liked and wanted and could afford, is that really that different than the reasons anyone else buys a specific car? Want another one? I prefer to shop at Lowes instead of Home Depot (both are within the same shopping area only a couple hundred yards apart) because I like Jimmy Johnson more than I like Tony Stewart. I can't say I've had different experiences in either store, or like either store better, so I make my shopping choice based upon a racing driver preference. -Odd Dave :) [/QUOTE]
