dang it. You are right... that's really how I feel about cars though. As much as I love cars, and love riding in them, and seeing them-- I don't like to drive. It scares me.

I'd take a SMART, or, a MINIone (w/ a turbo kit ), or an Audi S3 hatchback... none of these cars are here in the States though.

3) city -- I just want to be near friends and not in a rural place. Maybe DC.
4) date -- just someone who loves me.
5) music cd -- High School Musical soundtrack.
6) college -- I'm happy here in grad school at UF.
