I was so happy to see this post and to know that I am not the only one in love with my car. LOL! I have had mine since April. I would've never even considered it. I was actually looking at Civics & Lancers (What was I thinking?!). I had just gotten done at Carmax and nothing had caught my eye. I had looked at so many cars trying to find one that "sang" to me. Nothing. As we were leaving the Carmax we drove by the VW dealer because my boyfriend noticed "a little yellow hatchback-type car" in the lot. I figured I'd go check it out. I pulled in and saw it...The angels sang to me! LMFAO! He checked it out and test drove it (it is a 5-speed & I really hadn't had experience driving one). I was in love.
I went home and told my dad about it and he insisted that it was a car owned by a "kid" since it already had the Injen CAI and the Magnaflow muffler & tips. He said not to get it. I dreamed of that damn car all night. I found another one at another Carmax online. I almost went and bought that one for way more money than it was worth. I talked to my boyfriend and he said to take my dad down there to let him look at it. Dad and my brother came with me and they checked out the first one (the price was just too good) thoroughly. My brother drove it and was happy with it. They agreed it was just fine. So, I went in and signed the papers. I had just bought a car that I hadn't even driven yet, but was in love with.
I spent my first week of ownership learning how to drive it. I would go outside just to stare at it. I would point to it out the window and go, "That's MY little yellow car." My boyfriend thought it was cute and my mother thought I was nuts! I just love my car. It is so roomy and it just looks so sporty and fast. I sit and stare at it and think about the new wheels I want to get for it and how I want to get the windows tinted. And I just think of all the fun stuff I can do with my car.
My boyfriend has a '93 Mustang GT and he has never been big on "ricers," but he loves driving my car! LOL! I think he has as much fun as I do driving it. I love when I come out of a store and I can see my car sitting there in that parking lot. I can spot it a mile away. I am not one for yellow cars either, but it just works on my P5. I had to get the yellow one. I live in an apartment complex and I have noticed that there is a black around the corner from me and up front there is someone with a white one with some mods. I never noticed them before but I think it's really cool that there are a couple others right in my own complex.
I took my P5 on my first road trip with it this past weekend. I had to drive to the FL border to get two of my kids (I have three & the youngest lives with me) for the Summer. My boyfriend came with me so he could help me with the driving. I ended up driving the whole way there AND back. I never gave him a chance to drive it! LOL! I was just enjoying the ride so much! And the kids were pretty comfy with all the room and their luggage fit just fine.
I guess...What I am trying to say is...That I just love my P5.
