Hmm, I already have a car and those Nautilus things would look so cool in my mancave...

I'd take the car and would probably go for a BMW Z8. Have always loved that design.

Good call, JP. I like that BMW too.

Cam, for you, I'd throw in a week there. I'd even drive you there from Peterborough myself! Of course, I'd have to wait outside the the fence the whole time, 'cause they don't sell bulk Dramamine at Costco.


Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

I'm kinda surprised at the car votes. I see that you all have more in common with Micah than you do with Alan. Poseurs! I'd take the stereo.

If I weren't so old already, that stereo would bring me many more years of joy than the car and for more hours per week than I already spend in a car.

Everything about the car deteriotes, quickly.
The stereo requires no insurance, nor regular maintenace. In MA, the yearly insurance on that kind of car could crack $8k (x10years and there's another 80k), and no 6-figure car ever has a $250 maintenance or repair bill. The $100k stereo will never be in a collision or parked at the mall.

And lots of you guys still have young children!
No cool car looks good with Cheerios, Sesame Street dvd cases, and Barbie parts strewn about the interior. And as for a chick magnet, I've met a lot of you and I just don't see it happenin.' To get a hot babe into your hot wheels, you'd have to promise to give her the GD car after a very short ride---too short even for a Hugh Grant!

Reflekt!

Can I choose to pay off part of my mortgage instead? Maybe buy a car and put most of it in savings?

Bob is on fire today!

But, as opposed to a stereo, I need a car to function in society.

If practicality were more of a guide, I'd probably get a German or Japanese luxury sedan.

Hence the Audi RS6 Touring. Practical and ridiculously overpowered.

You mean the wagon version? Audi calls their wagons Avant; BMW uses Touring.
