I discovered something during the long trips I made back and forth to

driving a stiffer feeling truck than a super soft ride and that includes

I have to agree, at least about the soft ride. My wife's car is a LS460, and while it's comfortable, I don't like driving it. I think the vette's ride and feel is much more comfortable. Unless the road is really rough, the ride is actually pretty nice... for a performance car. In comparison, the Boxster I used to have was a great car, but the ride was a bit choppy.
I'd love to have an Audi S6. I had an A6 Quattro and loved it. The S6 is too much coin new, and it's hard to find a good used one.
Being tall has saved me the cost of a Boxster, or a Miata for that matter.. Just can't get the legs
unfolded. The little Jetta, on the other hand, has all the leg room in the world.

Have you ever sat in a Boxster? It might surprise you.
Oh, and if I expand the carmax search out to 500 miles, there's *1* S6 available, and it's in VA. Titled new in FL, then records have it in CA before ending up in VA. Uh, no thanks.
