The lady driving it I can only assume truly felt like a bumbling idiot for purchasing such a terribly ugly vehicle.

Hilarious that Nissan Motor company won't build the Q50 eau rouge cause they are afraid it won't sell, yet they were perfectly content putting out the Murano Convertible.

As for what Akinari said, if you are dumb enough to buy an X5m or X6m over the comparable lesser counterpart, when you don't care about performance or cars, you really are only hurting yourself. Cause you're overpaying for complicated shit you have no interest in, and your car is gonna be hungrier on gas, less comfortable, and be less useable in some situations, like off road or in winter.

The Murano CrossCabriolet is probably rarer than any exotic car in maybe North America :lawl:

Also it's funny that you say buying an X5M over a standard X5 is hurting yourself and overpaying, which is definitely true, but I even have a friend who financed an X5 just because he wanted a luxury SUV (not really because he needed it or could even afford one), and he had no idea how to use any of the electronics inside the car, not even the cruise control because he never once bothered to look through the instruction manual. He just wanted the X5 for the prestige and image it comes with. Not that there's really anything wrong with that, but like you say, you're just wasting your own money.

I need a Nissan Murano with a 302 + T5

A convertible 302 + T5 Nissan Murano would be more hipster than a Ferrari kit car towed rickshaw-style by 20 Cordova street meth-heads

A 302 and leaving sand at the beach are two pretty kick-ass songs!

He made a bad decision on the Murano convertible.

overdue for a car wash =/= not appreciating it

The work Audi has done preserving Lambo and respecting their history should not be dismissed, they still hand build every car but there is organization and structure and all those people have jobs because of it. The assembly line is very very impressive there, highly recommend taking that tour if you are in Italy.

Did you end up going to the Exposition in Milan? Crossed my mind taking my favorite girl in the whole world down there this summer. In fact, even thought about a rental car for a month, and making some local salesman happy spending an hour or so pitching and tailoring something that could be good for years and years.

Somewhat agree with you on this one. It is something that is in the back of your mind more so than one would like. Interestingly, some guy wrote his life story about living in Florida, making it out to be even worse than VanCity. There appears to be some similarities seen during the roaring 20's and maybe even the 50's.

One stretch a few months ago was particularly frustrating when reading the news during lunch hour at a couple restaurants. Noticed consecutively, these young folks at a large table in their early-mid 20's just leave the restaurant with tons of food on the table. Was probably bored but there was enough food, if packed, to be a good meal for all, based on a 2000 calorie/day diet. Maybe they were in a rush each time; maybe they didn't want the risk of sauce leakage in there Euro-sedan. One thing I will bet on is none of them appeared to seem like party-animals.

In all, its not so bad. Apparently it was reported they used to eons ago, destroy food to keep prices stable. I might just be jealous because at that age I could not afford to do that, let alone a morsel or two.
