Donated it to Wheels for Wishes. Tow truck came today and took Mr. SC2 to the auction lot.

Now, to figure out what I want to get next. I think I'm done with driving a beater, I'd prefer a somewhat more refined DD (and I'd like everything on it to actually work). Don't exactly know what particular car fills that requirement yet.

 

have you looked at Saab? I mean you could continue the streak of discontinued brands!

 

Hyundai. 100k warranty

 

Maybe I can find an Edsel.

 

Genesis coupe actually doesn't look too bad. I was leaning more towards the German manufacturers, but they do tend to be pricier (purchase price and maintenance-wise), and are not the highest rated on the reliability scale (my VW Passat had a couple of sensor failures). If I want to go with less practical - I was thinking Nissan Z. If I want practical and boring (and probably more maintenance) - VW Diesel Jetta wagon.

 

I heart VW diesel jetta wagon...but yes...maint. $$$$

 

3 Series BMW? They have their fair share of maintenance, but you would be able to do 99.99% of it yourself, and there are tons of DIY's (video or picture) for most of it.

 

I do like the 3 series - though I'd probably have to sell the Jeep, which would work if I can find a 3 series wagon.

 

if you are gonna do a wagon, and sell the jeep, why wouldn't you at least do a 5 series? I looked at 3 series wagons awhile back and it just didn't seem big enough to be useful as a wagon if that makes sense.

 

As long as I can put the rear seats down and have enough room for the dog. I don't have kids, so I'm not hauling around a lot of cargo.
