^ I find it interesting that the countries with the highest per capita GDP in Europe (Scandinavia, Belgium, Switz, Lux, etc. are the countries that invest the most on healthcare and education...all possible with far less manufacturing than the rest of the economic powers. I guess a highly educated and very fit worker tends to be more valuable than a 300 pounder with skills that don't go beyond stocking shelves at Wal-Mart and Target. A big reason why we are fat aren't just the bad food choices, its the bad food. The sugar content in everything off the charts here. Diet alternatives are worse for you, as is anything created in a lab by evil scientists.
And eating healthy in this country is now considered a luxury.

p.s.
Have you considred a 996 Turbo? You get your all wheel drive, don't have worry about gas mileage because you don't drive much, you get one of only two Porsches with a real dry sump race engine and lots of comfort for long rides.
Not to mention a car that can be parked next to any Ferrari.
