Good Bye Old Friend

by Michael (michael@code4life.com)

Soon, my car will get new radio presets, seating position, and home. My lease is up. It was a good car...it is a good car. It still looks damn sexy inside and out. The interior, after 3 and 1/2 years, still makes my eyes flutter every time I see it, and the exterior still looks sporty, yet elegant, parked in the driveway.

That being said, I'm not sad to see it go. I knew there'd be no possible future together since I got hit by a snowplow two years ago--a big, city plow filled with salt. Geico payed over $6,000 to make it right.

The moral: Anyone thinking of buying a canvas-beige 2004 Audi A4 3.0 should get a carfax report.

My Next Car

If cars are a way of measuring progress in life then I'm headed in the wrong direction. Most people start out with a ~Ford, move to a ~Volkswagen, and ultimately to a ~Mercedes. It's proof you're doing something right. Well, I hopping off the ladder. My next car is half the price of my A4, and that's not taking inflation into account. The Subaru Impreza 2.5i sedan is just so good. I'll post a review after we spend some time together.

Ahh... the snow plow. Seems like just yesterday...
