Need a new car. I don't drive alot of miles overall. I like a car that is relatively fast so I can speed by the nightmare drivers of Miami when needed by stepping on the on the gas. I also like comfortable, classy/stylish and reliable with a good sound system.

Hmmm, I know nothing about cars that don't have 4 wheel drive but the car you describe sounds like one I would love to take a spin in!

Well, if you're very flexible about the make and the features, it could be fun to spend several Saturday afternoons test driving different cars. Then when you have 2 or 3 likely candidates, try to rent each one for a weekend (weekend rates are cheaper) and really test them out. I will say that we are very happy with our Hyundais, especially the reasonable price and 10 year warranty, but they don't have the "zip" you seem to require. You might want to look into 6 cylinder cars. I think that they have faster acceleration. Have fun!

Guess what? I'll say get a Z4.

 

A less masculine version is the Audi TT.

 

For something a bit bigger - BMW 3 series M designation looks like a compact, moves like a rocket.

American.  

 

Everything today is pretty fast. Any ford ecoboost is really quick. Boss got a fusion that drives like a corvette did 10 years ago. Corvette would be perfect for Miami. New Stingray.

 

Or my favorite is a Ford Truck- Luxery and above everyone else so they stay away.

 

Or Mustang- 435 hp is quick and you got the weather for it all year.

 

But for the real fun it has to be two wheels and a Harley emblem on the side. Makes you feel good all over.

I got a '15 nissan altima "S"  (it's mid range), when me and the girls went to SC and Va. I got 39/40 MPG on the highway with cruise control  on, here in town I get 25/26..I like the car, handles really well, has good "humph" when you hit the gas, nice and roomy.. the one thing I would change about it if I could, would be to have the steering wheel telescope in more...as it is, for my feet to reach the petals I have to suck in my tummy to get in and out or move the seat every time I get in and out ... I'm lazy- so I leave the seat where I can reach the petals and tell myself  when I suck my tummy in -get'n in and out - that it's my "exercise" for the day ;)  :P

I have a sports car right now so close to the ground that sometimes I kind of roll out of the car to get out

LOL, yep, back in the day I had a 280ZX, five speed, LOVED that car... but at my age now, with these joints.... I think I'd be roll'n out of the seat or falling in to the seat if I still had it!! :P

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
