I've got a streak of car turnover to maintain. I tend to buy/sell at least one a year because I get bored easily, I've come to embrace turnover as a means of trying lots of different cars, and I think I've only missed one year in about 10. 2011 was a '79 Volvo 245, 2012 was an '01 Subaru Outback, and 2013 was an '03 325iT for my wife (sense a manual wagon theme?). This year saw the arrival of my purple F150, which has rendered my Outback redundant, great car though it is. So I want a new commuter. The question is, as we close 2014, what will come next? Budget under $5k, fun, interesting in some way, and must have a reasonably useful back seat (otherwise a 944 would be on the list). Currently in the running, in the dark realms of my mind & late night searches:
Fox Mustang 5.0 (give me a break, I've always wanted one)
Alfa GTV6 or Milano
Mk1 GTI
E36 328i
Yet another E28
E21 320i
Yet another Audi 4000Q, because the one I have has scaffolding in the back
??? (this is where you come in, ya bunch of weirdos)
Or do I cool it, stay patient, and save my ducats for a car I'd (probably, maybe) never sell, my personal unicorn, a 95.5 S6 Avant, like !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

Ooohh, That S6 looks amazing. I suggest that you buy it now.

I'm not far from Leavanworth. I'd be more than happy to hold it in my driveway for you until you are ready to take possession. It's the least I could do.

I appreciate that, thanks a lot. I want to get up that way to do some mountain biking anyway, could be a good excuse. Happy New Year!
