I had this car for about 6 years. I put 35K miles on it and switched between using it in nice weather and a Honda Accord otherwise. You'd think it would be fast with 12 cylinders but it wasn't.

EDIT: It wasn't that incredibly expensive by the way. Jaguars depreciate like a stone falling off a cliff.

Audi R8 - for the way it drives, not the way it looks. It doesn't exactly have a subtle look.

Audi Q7 - a bit more family friendly.

Audi is my favourite car brand. Stylish, comfortable to both drive and be a passenger in. I have a weak spot for German cars in general.

Oh, if you're going to post the Top Gear episode about your car, I'll just have to post the one about mine:

OP, I agree, I totally don't like the stuff other people like. You could say I'm unique.

I'm not saying I want one, but boy would it be cool to have a friend with one and go to a track day. :biggrin:

A pure driving experience if ever there was one...

My seats are black. It was whatever the special edition of that year was that had the funky seat colors with red and black.

Was it just my inferior Se, or did anyone else kinda like those seats?

It's gaudy. I feel the same way about cars with the racing stripes. They're unnecessary. Not classy looking.

Agreed. I very much prefer solid colors.

I love that this thread turned into a display of awesome cars. Very fitting.

If I had more money than God I'd totally buy an awesome-looking, expensive car, because why not? A really fancy car is very low on my list of priorities though, I'd pretty much have to have more money than I knew what to do with (which seems unlikely!). Everyone has different priorities for where to spend money, and motivations for choosing a particular car will vary tremendously, of course.

I also doubt it's much related to type if at all. :shrug:

This INTJ's dream car is the Land Rover Defender 90. Unfortunately, they haven't sold it in the USA since the late 90s because extensive modifications would have been needed to meet the USA's airbag and safety requirements.

I'm sort of partial to these:

Of course, if I could afford one, I'd choose to retire instead :D.
