I'm not that picky, but I know what I don't want. And there are a lot of cars out there I don't want. I'm likely going to be looking for something that is very different from the Z. Either SUV or pickup or something luxury. Handling will be secondary because I have that in the Z. How it feels and drives will be key. I like features, but I don't need features. I'm not going in with preconceived notions about any cars and will do most of my research (beyond basic specs) after I test drive several. Budget is always a factor, but I expect won't be test driving cars much past $40K.

Of course, we'll probably have a kid in those two years, throwing all of those plans down the garbage disposal
