But cars and SUVs like this make a great rental using Turo, when you just want to blast around multiple people for a few days in a high-performance appliance. But I never want to own one, they simply don't cure my high-speed fantasies. Too heavy and too isolated for my tastes, and most don't even ride all that well (too stiff). Losing civility and max comfort defeats the purpose of having such a large machine to me.
completely agree.

i think alot of people have to compromise for their wife/kids though. man wants something sporty and suggests a sedan. wife says no and wants an SUV to make it easy to load kids / car seats.

if you live in the city garaged parking spots are expensive. and sometimes you can't even get side by side spots (one car is deep to the other, which is cumbersome). so having two or three cars for yourself is a non starter.
