I like many cars. Just because I drive an IS doesn't mean I have to stop liking other cars. I think it would be fun to have a TC in the garage. It would be hella fun modding it too. I don't drive my iS to work everyday (public transportation) so it would be nice to have a daily fun car.

Yes, I'm married. Are you saying young people can't get married? :o) My wife and I don't sit around the house peeking at the neighbors lawn. We snowboard, see local bands, get drunk, camp, etc.

I don't care what age-group a car is targeted for, if I think it looks good then I think it looks good! My perrogative, my money, my life. Don't tread...

Yeah, I was afraid to drive it in the snow for a long time, but I found out that if you have good snow tires, then driving in the snow isn't a problem (except your car gets very dirty). The car has a "snow mode" which cuts the power to the wheels significantly. I don't think you can get past 30 mph in 3rd gear with snow mode on. I drove on an icey highway in morning traffic once (you could actually see the ice covering the road) and I was scared to death that I was going to get stuck or slide around. The snow tires, snow mode, manual trans, and traction control, all worked beautifully.

Get good snow tires. Don't rely on all-season tires to save you. Snow tires!!

Later.
