I slay, within reason, with the 9-5 Aero. Such a sleeper car. Passing power, and by that I mean 65-90mph, is just right there on tap.
I think since the times of free money, zero down leases and irrational exuberance - for me at least- bmw's and merc's and even A4's to a certain extent are such a turnoff. Every dope with a heartbeat leased a three, every mid manager got into a five, every hedge fund guy pushing a seven. Predictable, boring and "me too!" on the lower rungs. Gotta love the army of zombies in silver C classes and threes...those cars embody - again to me - everything that was wrong with this country during the last few years. These cars are, if you think about, stainless steel kitchens on wheels.
Car exclusivity is a true measure of status and it isn't always measured in dollars. Give me a loaded Saab (or volvo) any day!
