BMW M5 would be my next choice, but to be honest i really love my civic. I will not purchase a new car for atleast 5 more years.

I drove a Vanquish in clearwater fl, they knew my Dad had a amazing collection and i was trying to sell them his F50, so they gave me the key to the vanquish and said "go have lunch" needless to say, my son and I drove it like mad!!! It was a sweet ride......had it most of the day and love the paddle shifters...that will be in the future.


PS never had lunch....

Lots of variables, however, I will probably be looking at a Lexus Hybrid. I like the direction the Lexus H series have gone in. Power and economy in one package.

sweet... I saw that you asked me on the other thread....

Im either trading the civic in a year or keeping it and buying another car....
This car is so fun to drive that I don't want to put the keys down... If I continue on this track, itll have close to 50k miles at the end of the year.. And its unacceptable for a car to have 50k.. I might keep it or trade it in..

My next car would probably be a 6mt maxima or ser... or I was thinking of an suv..

After I get the Civic paid off....my BF and I've been debating on what to get him for a daily driver. I wanted him to get the Acura TSX (Because four door would be so convenient especially in the future) but then again he wanted the s2000 and after debating about prices and everything, we decided to get a used RSX-S.

Then later down the line, I'm going to trade in the Civic for probably an Acura or a Infiniti. Whatever is affordable in my price range but then again, I might look into the four-door Accord. Not the newer ones...probably from 2005.

The redesigned CR-V...The Civic is almost all paid off (you can hear the sound of crickets chirping in my bank account :rolleyes: ) but i don't know exactly how long i'll be keeping the Civic. My brother will need a car in about 2-3 years, but instead of giving the Civic to him, i would just trade it in for the new CR-V. But with college right around the corner, i could end up keeping this car for another 7-8 years, so only time will tell

I'm thinking of getting either the 2008 Audi A4 or the 2008 Audi A5...both, I think, are fantastic looking cars. I've also been thinking of the Alfa Romeo Brera (which is making its reappearance in North America at the end of 2007, I think). Or an Aston Martin DB9...hahaha...please allow me to go back to my dream world now.

Once I turn 25 I'll probably trade in the civic for a nice Mini Cooper S. I had originally planned to purchase one until I realized what my insurance payments will be. So I have another 4 years of safe driving ahead of me before insurance prices will allow me to buy one.

Dream car is probably a concept car. I'd love to buy one of those things.

If I were to buy one within my current means, I would choose one of the following:

Audi S4 Avant
Infiniti G35 Coupe
Toyota FJ Cruiser

As for the future, who knows what we'll have in 5 years. I mean we're seeing cars go from concept to production within one year now-a-days. Who knows if Honda might come out with a RWD or even AWD Civic to run with the STis and Evos. I hope that I'll be making enough money by 5 years to seriously consider a Nissan GT-R.
