Test drove a 2017 Audi Allroad Prestige with every option today. I might consider it, but too many fucking buttons. Found it distracting. I much prefer the elegant and intuitive interior of the new SPA 90 series cars from Volvo. ---

yeah we totally missed the boat on the Ford GT, 3-pedal Ferrari 599 etc. the spread on a decent manual BMW Z8 is crazy though… sometims you can find them for $150k, sometimes they are $225k. there’s probably a reason for it but i dont care enough. $40k - $60k gets you a really really nice BMW 850csi and i think that is perfectly reasonable and a definite future 6-figure car. the first gen BMW M5’s are a fucking steal still too. ---

I can’t believe the z8 is that much, I thought it’s just another car like the z4? Slightly bigger. I don’t even think a z8 looks good, reminds me of a miata ---

Not that I can afford one but I’m definitely excited to hear about the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. It sounds like it will be a pretty nasty sedan. Other cars I’m excited about are the Focus RS which is finally coming to the states/is here. Along with that is the potential for the Civic Type R which looks pretty mean. I know it is a FWD car but damn does Honda know how to make a performance FWD car when they try. I’m sure it will corner better than some RWD and AWD cars that are comparable in price. ---

My attainable “dream” cars used to be things like Vettes, 911’s etc. Now I have almost no interest in those and dream about trading my CC in on an Audi S5 cabriolet. ---

That new Golf Alltrack seems really cool but they seem to be priced right in the STI range which is insane. I won’t even mention the lack of a third pedal for any sort of hate I might receive 🙂 ---

I don’t know if I’ll ever want a “cool” car again. Which is weird. I think If I ever did get back into cars I’d probably just make my own. ---

I won’t even mention the lack of a third pedal for any sort of hate I might receive 🙂 Golf SportWagen with 4Motion is to get a third pedal in the S (base) trim early 2017. MSRP is right around $24,000 and with late year deals I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the east coast (not local) dealers have them going for $3-4k off MSRP. - - - Updated - - - [http://www.emichvw.com/assets/misc/9890/PDF/2017\_VW\_Golf\_Alltrack\_order\_guide.pdf](http://www.emichvw.com/assets/misc/9890/PDF/2017_VW_Golf_Alltrack_order_guide.pdf) [http://www.emichvw.com/assets/misc/9890/PDF/2017\_VW\_Golf\_Sportwagen\_order\_guide.pdf](http://www.emichvw.com/assets/misc/9890/PDF/2017_VW_Golf_Sportwagen_order_guide.pdf) ---

I have pondered the idea of the current Honda Civic Coupe Si in 3-pedal a couple times… i wouldnt seriously consider it but it certainly does seem like great value for like $27k new CDN, which probably puts it around $22k USD new? It’s a lot of car for that dollar.
