No one person or product is an absolute all rounder. There are strengths and there are weakness in each of the product/person. This lead me to think about cars (what else). Current I owned 2 cars. One for going to work and another to release stress. With most people, these would be more than enough. For me, it is just the beginning.
I did some thinking and I have reached an unsettling conclusion. I need at least 3 cars to satisfy my needs. The first car is for daily car use. This is tool of choice for grocery runs and going to work on most days. This car has to be cheap to run and cheap to fix. It should be relatively fast and comfortable. The first car is called My Daily Drive. Examples would be Proton R3 version or Suzuki Swift Sport.
The second car I need to have is a fast point-to-point car. It should be the weapon of choice to disturb the neighborhood (just kidding!)..I meant a weapon of choice to drive on track and on twisty and winding road on weekends. It should have enough horsepower to 'disturb' some supercars and handling that's almost Lotus perfect. The second car is called My Sports Car. A perfect example would be the likes of Subaru Impreza, Mitsubishi Evo, Lotus Exige or my personal favourite and bank-breaking Porsche GT2 (RM1.7mil last time I checked)
The last type I wish I have is a grand tourer. It is something for me to use on long drives to balik kampung (if not flying). It needs to be comfortable and fast at the same time. Hopefully it can carry at least 5 pax comfortably and can still go. The third car is called My Touring car. Some fine examples are BMW M5 Wagon, Merc Kompressor, Volvo and Audi's
:) I realized that I am insatiable. Well, cars drives me (no pun intended), what drives YOU?
