In Europe they want 4-seater sedans that get great gas mileage and can be serviced anywhere. A liter of regular over there is about $4 maybe higher now. Also space is very limited and usually one car is all a family can afford. Me, I have 3 auto's and plenty of room to park and roads to drive on. We are blessed as a people to have so many choices and able to enjoy life. Since I have bought Boxster, I usually will see one every other day or so. Seems when you by something you then notice more of em.
