I know the usual debate of auto vs. manual and street performance gets a lot of attention, but I’m looking to dive into something a bit different. Imagine you’ve got one car that you’re committed to driving for the rest of your life, no matter what. Let’s put aside the transmission preference for a moment. Picture this: it’s 10 years down the road, your car has racked up over 100k miles, the warranty is long gone, and you’re pulling up to pick up your kid from school, engine rumbling, with that same goofy grin on your face. Which car would you still be excited to drive in that scenario? And is there a car you’d hesitate to keep around, even if you’ve maintained it perfectly yourself?
