Fezo, maybe I should get a 5 like yours. But not red. And cheaper. Know of any?

But I will browse to see what's interesting.

This is all your fault. "As long as I'm looking up Mazdas,".....
I checked the links. lots of low miles. I have realized that I would have to get a GT in this. Even if just for the power seats. and of course, moonroof!
My Miata was a 2001 I think. I really didn't fit very well in that. Interested to try a newer one to see if any better. Hopefully I will run into a new style one at some point. Though close to 30K for a toy is not going to be in the budget any time soon.

One of the Challengers is a 2015 R/T Scat Pack in white(Vanishing Point Edition? ) with three pedals, slick top, a decent audio system, and heated/cooled seats and heated wheel. Think: American 650i- except that the R/T is a bit bigger yet weighs a bit less.
Check it out...

I'll move on to some other shiny toy. Might drive a cruze anyway. seem to be cheap deals these days. Or just go buy a camry. or something. maybe tune up my bike.
I may just give up and not get out of bed. easier than dealing with the search process!

wonder what they will actually take for it, since they just list the $39,8xx MSRP. 30K? Less? how the heck do you price a brand new yet roughly 2 MY old car?

big debate, stick OK? Might cause issues down the line with car swapping. But heck, life isn't easy.
hope to free up some time tomorrow afternoon to look at a few things alone. Better that way, before I drag the better half along.

I like the Challenger, and prefer it to the Camaro and Mustang. I know they all have their good and bad points, but the Mustang, especially the latest version, just feels too small to me. The Camaro is better, but still feels on the small side...and the seating position is L-O-W! The Challenger, in contrast, feels like a midsized coupe that's fairly roomy, just not that space efficient.
In 1970's terms, I think it would be like comparing a '75 Mustang II, a '75 Camaro, and a '75 Charger. I know conjuring up Mustang II seems like a serious diss on the Ford, but I'm referring only to interior/roominess feel...otherwise I like the Mustang a lot. Just too small for me.
Perception is everything when it comes to acceleration. Before my Subaru (175 hp) and it's high 8 second (maybe low 9) 0 - 60 mph time, most of the cars I own (or have owned) have acceleration times in the low to mid 7 second range (Prelude, TSX, Pilot, 328xi, X3). Anytime I get behind the wheel of something with a mid 6 second 0 - 60 mph time it feels fast and anything in the 5s is like a rocket to me.

The really cool stuff? Only about 5% of buyers care about that.

What say you guys who know, did I just throw some $ out the door by using premium or is it really better for the 1.8 turbo engine? Just don't get why VW says one thing, Audi another on virtually the same engine in similar vehicles?

Acura and Honda are the same way. My RDX is PUG recommended, but the same basic engine in a Honda is RUG. I even checked the specs, and they were identical (same compression ratio, and whatever else they listed). I go back and forth with what I use, and I have never noticed a difference depending on grade (some of my best MPG tanks have been on RUG).

Regarding the Golf, I think the jury is still out on turbo's. They run hot and spin at a much higher rpm, so I wouldn't be surprised if down the road it will need a higher octane fuel whether manufacturer specified or not. I'd also watch the oil consumption on a turbo. I don't think it's a coincidence that the BMW and Audi models being called out by Consumer Reports are turbo's. America went through a short term affair with turbo's in either the latter 80's or early 90's as I recall. I think technology has probably made them more viable on a long term basis than back then. However, I also suspect the software programming is going to be critical on how a turbo runs long term. Remember, a jet turbine engine has far fewer parts than a conventional automobile piston engine.
Spoke with my service guy at VW and he said to come in at 8.5k or 9k to get the oil changed which I was happy with.

Actually read the ad wrong though - it says 6-speed transmission. CVTs don't have "speeds" eh?
Harmon-Kardon, automatic cruise, Xenon, fogs, LSD, heated leather, power top with sunroof. Run flats.....
Original MSRP was $30k.
(@sandman_6472, my cataract complication developed within a week or ten days after my surgery, so yours is probably not related).
Well, stick will still deny all responsibility but I'm going to look at the Miata on Saturday. Not like I should be spending like this but it's something I can manage to lend to myself and pay back easily enough.

the current plan, just not feeling it. of course, tomorrow when I drive an Si, if they offer it up for $195/mo, I might reconsider.
