3. Made a deal with wife that I would get rid of the family '62 Tempest convertible sitting unmoving in the garage in return for family consent to buy unpractical car, since enough practical cars already in family. I wanted convertible, front wheel drive, reliable to buy used. That = Volvo. Still haven't parted with the relic yet.

2. Oh wow, absolutely the nicest Rover you can buy, of course I have no family and I'm not very outdoorsy.
3. Oh no pressure, I don't care what others think of me. That should be obvious.

2. Used European imports - best price per max remaining milieage expectation vs. used domestic and Asian jobs, and any new car.
3. I am peer pressure
I drive an 08 4Runner and freaking love it, bought it CPO and best thing I've ever owned. I'll drive it till the wheels fall off. My wife drives an 05 Accord that has low miles but beat to crap with dings and dents and bad paint.
Couldn't care less what people think, if what I drive mattered to them they probably wouldn't be a part of my life.
That being said, my next car will be a Tesla.
