In that foreign domestic vain I want to tell you guys about something that happened the other day.
I wanted a rear wheel drive car and I started checking around.
Though it turns out I cannot afford to do it as I have a current lease, I found one of the greatest cars I have ever sat my arse into.
Are you ready?
Chrysler.
Dodge Charger, Road and Track Edition, small V8, rear wheel drive, and all kinds of handling and going and braking enhancements.
Phenomenal, would take it over any BMW, Audi etc. I have driven during my search.
Handles like a nice new Corvette, smooth as silk going down the road. Tight, no squeaks no rattles. Dead quiet until you open up that beautiful engine and hear the nicest engine growl this side of a Ferrari.
go into a hard turn at 50 mph and she runs through flat as a pancake without the slightest bit of drama.
The car dealer had a death grip on the seat until he realized I know what the heck I am doing and I ran it through about 20 minutes of mixed back bumpy road and smooth hard cornering.
Very comfortable room for five adults, all the electronic amazement a man can handle with 1960's engine power and torque with 2012 European sedan handling.
I pleaded the case with the CEO, but with two in college it is not going to happen for me.
Been a week and still cannot stop thinking about the shear pleasure of that vehicle.
With 19 city and 25 highway mileage to boot.
Sorry to highjack the thread CT but needed to vent.
