Bad Habbit!

So for the most part I am very controlled. If I had to say there is one thing that I just can not help myself with........ that would be buying cars. I am 33 years old and to date I have had 14 cars. I was doing good the past 2.5 years, I have had the same car. All of the sudden I decided yesterday that I want a new car, so I started looking online for what I wanted.

 

I decided that I wanted something that I have not had yet. I have been through Nissan, Ford, Chevy, Infinity, Mercedes, Porsche and Lexus. Well I finally decided. Tomorrow I sign for my newest card and I chose a Maserati. I do not know why I do not seem to keep cars very long but oh well.

Well in a year or two when you get tired of the Maserati, I will happily take it off your hands!

Get a Mini Cooper S

The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

Forget Maserati. I'm 33 like you and have had almost the same list of cars as you plus my hubby's corvette I got to drive when he was in a good mood haha. I'm looking forward to the Kia Optima 2016. Patiently. Waiting. Yep. Tick. Tock.

Don't get me wrong, I love the tesla. Today when I was at the dealership purchasing the car, I test drove a used Tesla they had on the lot. It is a great car. Might be something I look into as my next one. Knowing me, probably in a year or 2.

Went and signed the papers today. So far I really like this car. The body style is excellent and drives great too.
