Drove to lunch in my dad's yesterday. Great looking car, but I don't go for the paddle shifters all these high $ cars are getting now-a-days. Yah, I know it's faster on the track, but how often do you drive on the track?? In every day driving, using paddles to shift seems as senseless as manual shifting a automatic transmission.

Suppose I will have to get a dig camera one of these days. The car really makes quite a statement; although not as much as the S7 when that gets here.

Just out of complete curiosity, what do you drive?, and what other cars do you have?

I drive a NB GLX. Yes, I can afford to drive a more expensive car (my previous car was a 928), but I really enjoy my beetle.
