Mini Cooper.


Ugh, no way. Minis have the least comfortable interior I've experienced, and this is coming from someone who spent years on the road with a different rental each week.


I mean, I've dissed on BMW in this thread but I ain't blaming you in the least if you buy a 2 series because that car is awesome.


Audi A4, although I think only the AWD has a manual option.

I guess most technically I am soccer mom. But I think I'd rather be lesbian, for the purposes of car selection (or that one random night in college but that's a whole other thread). Ugh. I hate cars and driving.


Get the Subaru.

Signed,
Married with 2 kids, owned an Impreza and an Outback. Now driving a different car but really miss my Subie ... and secretly loved being grouped in with the lesbians.

I did and it was monumentally stupid of me.

I'll play. We moved here from Ohio a few months ago, accompanied by our much-loved 2015 Buick Enclave. And ever few weeks, I get a very nice compliment along the lines of, "Oh, I love your car! Did you guys move here from the Midwest?" ? Yup. And we even bought it with the GM friends and family discount. But I don't care. My car is awesome.

Haaaa this is so funny to me. I once worked with a guy from wisconsin. He drove an old American sedan. He would always comment at how shocking it was to him that no one drives American cars here. We don't because they are junk. Japanese will last for 20 years. You see a 10 year old American sedan, and it's likely a meth head drivig it.

What about a Mini Cooper? My 26 year old son drives one.

Gosh, people here are mean! LOL. Not really, I am sorry, I know it is just the internet. I can only tell you that in 3 years and coming up on 60k miles, we've not had a single repair, or even an odd rattle or squeak. And I love having a third row seat that my 6 ft tall son and his elderly Grandma both find comfortable and accessible. Bonus points: here in NOVA, I never ever lose it in a parking lot. My husband is threatening to trade in his Honda Accord for a Buick LaCrosse for that very reason -- it would almost certainly be the only one in his office's parking garage.

This is so wrong. Growing up in DC the oldest money families drove the oldest, most inconsequential cars. It was quite common to se 10 year old grand squire wagons. It was all the new money families with the flashy rides.

Anyone who believes this doesn't understand how well-off people manage their money.
