    Dream: Porsche 911 Turbo S

    Realistic: Infiniti Q50

    I had a 2015 G37x a few years ago, and a G35x before that. I love those cars. The Porsche would be nice!

      People sleep on the Q50 but I absolutely love ours. It’s comfortable, yet agile, awd, physical buttons… near perfection for a family car. We bought it used with a few thousand miles on it for cheaper than a civic, and had it a decade now with no major problems. My biggest concern is finding something comparable and affordable to replace, as infinti seems to have stupidly abandoned sedans.

      Edit- the infotainment sucks as much as the reviews say, but if just using bluetooth you’ll never need to interact anyway.

        That was what turned me on to the G337x. Great car, I added a Bluetooth module, that oddly hooked into the satellite radio harness, and it worked great. Pretty sure steering controls worked as well. In fact, that car was the reason I learned how to do some intermediate level repair, due to the cost of what shops wanted to charge. The snow mode switch definitely helped ( I live in the northern US). It’s going to take probably a couple of more years before I’ll be able to get back in one, but that is definitely a goal of mine.
