Complex Numbers

Wheels

So a while back, this year, in this blog, I was indecisive about getting a new car.

Well, no longer.

The separation pretty much clinched it - once I knew I wasn't going to be completely cleaned out, I started searching anew.

So if you recall (or bother to scroll down), I was looking for something that I liked that didn't scream "mid-life crisis" or "prick."

I went test-driving again - the guys at Toyota still ignored me, but fuck 'em. The Camry wasn't as good as other cars in its price range, anyway.

I still like the Nissan I looked at, but I still felt like I wanted something that could get me around in the snow and onto job sites (assuming I have job sites again )

So this is what I ended up buying:

That's a 2010 Subaru Legacy, and while I was expecting to buy a car in my favorite color (black), that blue was too cool to pass up.

I could tell you about engine, gas mileage, sunroof, and other neat features, but the real thing that sold me on it:

A face-melting Harman-Kardon stereo system.

That sucker goes beyond eleven. WAY beyond eleven.

I'll be deaf by the time I'm ready to sell that car, but I don't care.
