Default Does the car make the woman/man or does the woman/man make the car ?

Hi all. I have been thinking about getting another vehicle to completment my M3. A few weeks ago I drove a 225QC and since then I have been lurking here. I have also been lurking in the S2000 and Boxster forums. I just wanted to tell you how much fun this forum is compared to those others. I look forward to checking in each day with you guys. Ah, and gals too! You sound like a great bunch of people who truly love your TT's yet also manage to keep your egos in check, unlike those other forums. So it makes me wonder, does the woman/man make the car or does the car make the woman/man?

Default With the wisdom I've aquired, one would have to say

both!! Great car, crappy owner = crappy
Great owner, crappy car = crappy
great car, great owner = greatness all around!!
Best all around car out of the bunch that you're thinking of. Some here have some combinations of all you're thinking of (s2000, TT....boxster, TT.....M3, TT...) maybe they will chime in. Good luck Doug

Default I think that a car that makes sense and is balanced appeals to like minded people :-)...

so when are you getting the TT? :-)

Default Since a car with which you are one will lend itself to the free expression and harmony of the

individual while the driver brings out the best in the car when they are attuned, I would say that driver and car have a symbiotic relationship - a driver having fun brings out the best in the car.

On the other hand, a great car may attract the wrong women and if the man gives into this temptation-- while great in the short run, it brings about an imbalance in the driver (usually caused by too much whiskey) over the long run and a divergence in the force.

Such is the way

Default Neither. It is the simple joy of driving for both genders.

nothing more, nothing less.
