Straw man argument:


Anyone can change the scenario. If you buy the Accord and then decide you need to drive six clients around, add in a few feet of snow and you still have a lousey DD. Should have bought the bus. Certainly 4WD.

I have had a two seat Z car for over 30 years as my DD and never hit snow, nor multiple unexpected clients needing a ride. We have taxi service in our area.

I am far more concerned with the possibility of the road opening up and finding myself alone with some curves, and not having my Z, then worrying about work.

Everyone is different though, as you said b15.
Agree. For me, a FWD sedan fits the bill nicely when I needed to take clients out and for inclement weather. Here in the Chicagoland area, unless you're a farmer....you don't need to worry about ANY roads opening up.

Granted now I travel all the time so leaving the Z as a weekend car works out perfectly.
