    Well, the Mrs. and I bought new cars this past weekend. We needed to get out of one of our cars as it was facing very expensive repairs and we had put over 90,000 miles on it in less than three years. So, this one is mine:

    And I freaking love it. It may be a Dad car for a guy who probably won't be a Dad for a long while, but I love the leather, sunroof and, most importantly, the Ipod jack. :) Of course, I will be receiving my first speeding ticket soon as I routinely notice that I'm going about 85 on the highway when it feels like I'm going 70.

    However, I am a little jealous of my wife's car.

    Once we're back living together, I will be sure that I get to drive this at least once a week. We took it up to Tyler to see my sister on Saturday and the thing is fun to drive. I wouldn't want manual all the time, but I could handle it every once in a while.

    Ok, just thought I'd share. :)

    Mine is the SE. I enjoyed the Scion and it was a comfortable road trip car.

    It really is. I had a really hard time with the decision due to obvious reasons, but the second I sat down in that car after I signed the papers, I had a huge smile on my face.

    RM95,

    I like that your wife's car is pictured in what looks like the opening scenes of a slasher movie. :eek:

    j/k major congrats. We have been pining for Mazda, but it's still up in the air at this point.
