The Quest for “The Car”

I have been shopping around like crazy for a new car but nothing had turned me on. Actually, every car dealer I went into I found a car I wanted. I wanted everything, a Toyota Prado, a Nissan 350Z, a Infiniti G35, an Armada, a BMW Z4, even a Citroen C2 (only KD3,850!!). Every car I looked at I wanted, thats when I realized I didn’t really want a new car, I just wanted to change my car. Its hard to explain but somehow somewhere I put it in my head that I needed to get a new car, so the past two weeks of shopping I wasn’t really looking for “The Car”, I was looking for “Any Car”.

So realizing that I decided to think about which car do I “really” want, which car would be “The Car” for me. With that I came out with 2 cars, the new Range Rovers, and the Hummer H2 SUT. The problem is both cars are out of my budget with the cheapest Ranger Rover I saw was KD14,000 and the cheapest H2 SUT I saw was for KD13,000. So since I couldn’t afford any of these cars at the moment I decided to just stick with my car until I could. So as simple as that, my quest for a new car is over. Now I just need to break the news to the guy who is supposed to be buying my car this week…

    Then just get the Grand Marquis, the Bentley sadly would also be over your budget.

    here is a tip, find someone in Iraq who can get you a hummer used by Army but no longer needed, fix it and then you have a hummer for a reasonable price ;)

    Nibaq: I forgot to go to the ford showroom!!
    Shot: the STS is really cool… from the outside. the inside is just a typical american car.
    Purg: got any contacts?

    i already saw a z4 for 9500, but it was an import and the car didn’t really turn me on. would rather have a second hand S2000 but i found out yesterday that the old ones were manual and i want an automatic.
