I hate to break it to you, Sridhar, but your Camry isn't a European car.
:)
I drive an Audi A8 4.2 Quattro.
So you replaced your Camry finally? I'm sorta glad that I replaced mine last
year.
A (gasp) **new** "BMW" Mini Cooper S. I love that car. It may not be
classic, but it's probably more fun, safe, efficient, etc.
Oh, and to haul stuff, I've got a converted '89 Checy Van 30 Boxvan. It's
amazing the amount of abuse that thing can take... best $1k I ever spent. Of
course, its replacement will have a liftgate, which is the one thing which
that guy is missing.
