A 2002!! Came *this close* to buying one even though I couldn't afford it but my 6'5" frame convinced me I'd probably die a fiery death in the damn thing. And so missed a chance at being cool. But the story gets worse. I went sensible and bought a 78 Chevy impala. Post-purchase comment from a friend: "It's a contraception car. There's no chance of you getting so much as a date drive that thing."

Thank you for this wonderful reflective essay! We need more reminders of the human moments in our lives.
