My wife has always been pleased with her cars.
When we were first married she had a little German Ford (like a 4-door Mercury Capri).
Then a tiny economical Toyota Starlet which was easy to handle and park, and ‘cute’.
When the kids got to preschool age, a Volvo wagon with a rear-facing third seat hauled the kids and their friends everywhere. It was considered a bit ‘Yuppy’ at the time, but at least it was nicer and safer than a minivan.
When the kids got older, she downsized to a bright red 328 BMW which she loved. This was her first car with an automatic transmission. After 10 years, that car got passed down to one of the kids, and she replaced it with a bright red 330 BMW which she loves. She is a high school teacher and I think she enjoys being the envy of the students and the staff.
I’m still driving the '91 Volvo wagon.
